What is the status of OSM licensing? What license would Mapmaker data
have to be for it to be useable for OSM?
Last I saw on OSM licensing was:

Without a reasonable response from google, is there anything else to
think other than they want no dependency, no competition? Making
mapmaker #really# open could lead to other neo-navteqs. Of course it
could also markedly increase the quality and use of efforts-two open
data projects that basically seek to accomplish the same thing (with
different terms)? Doesn't sound right to me (I am channeling

Subject: [Geowanking] Using Google Mapmaker Data
At the Google Maps chat I asked about the non-commercial, non-
compete licensing of their Mapmaker Data Download. As Mikel pointed
out on:
http://brainoff.com/weblog/2009/04/01/1391
The licensing allows for NGOs, but not really for hackers. They were
definitely intrigued by this and we're going to talk more. What
would you want in the Mapmaker Download? What would you want to be
able to do with the data?
