Does your code take into account the plan that people should have the option of saying "no", "yes", and "yes and by the way all my data is PD anyway"? This had been discussed on the legal-talk list a while ago and according to RichardF this idea even received SteveC's blessing (he allegedly said something like "just formalising the scheme on the Wiki anyway"). Maybe you can check this one with Steve, I would really be happy to see this implemented. If and how we get that data out of the system would be secondary; it's just that I would like users to be given the choice to affirm their preference. - Such an option would certainly improve the acceptance of the license changeover process among PD advocates!
