please get some specific suggestions we can give them for what to use
instead?
ODbL licensed data can be imported into OSM
(http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/License#Can_third-party_ODbL-licenses_data_be_imported.3F).
There are some advantages to terms which would allow the data to remain
if the license were to be changed in the future, but this is not required.
As a matter of principle for publicly funded data I recommend PDDL, CC0
or another license which places no requirements on the user of the data.
