http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1.0/ [BOF] 4.6 Access to Derivative Databases. If You Publicly Use a Derivative Database or a Produced Work from a Derivative Database, You must also offer to recipients of the Derivative Database or Produced Work a copy in a machine readable form of: a. The entire Derivative Database; or b. A file containing all of the alterations made to the Database or the method of making the alterations to the Database (such as an algorithm), including any additional Contents, that make up all the differences between the Database and the Derivative Database. [EOF] So whenever you create a derivative database you can simply add the breadcrumb track of how you did it and Voila, the license conditions have been met, happy. In my mind one of the greatest sections in OdbL (an admittedly narrowly metadata focused mind).
