There are fundamental differences between source code and data.
Share-alike code does not prevent you from building complex
applications, whereas share-alike data is a show stopper for anything
not absolutely trivial.

I understand that OdbL is trying to address and alleviate some of these
issues. Unfortunately I fear that I am not going to understand
'kafkaesque' legalese and I prefer licenses that I can understand
without having to consult a lawyer. Maybe somebody wants to take the
opportunity and explain in a few words how OdbL is supposed to work?
