Hi Andrés,
Personally I would have started this thread on OSM legal-talk
<https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk> to clear the license.
IANAL, but as far as I understand the LIBRE USO MX-license is due to the
by-clause not compatible with ODbL. If this is true so you'd have to ask the
data owner to release the data as ODbL, CC0 or without a license (public
domain).
My understanding is that you do not comply with the by-clause unless you
annotate every raw data point displayed or used in a derivate such as a
rendered map. I.e. as the data is added to OSM the Mexican government will
become "just another OSM contributor” and as a third party extract this data
will will be annotated with “(C) OpenStreetMap contributors” rather than “(C)
INEGI, MGN 2014 v6.2”.
Once again, IANAL and I might have gotten it all wrong, this is just how I’ve
interpreted previous discussions on the topic.
