Ok, so for those who haven’t googled me yet and figure it out.  I work for 
Dakota County.  So I talked to my boss today and he said we can be listed on 
the Contributors page, but that I shouldn’t go beyond that with any additional 
wording that may be misconstrued as legal language from our attorney.  This 
disclaimer predates the free and open policy and we’ve heard from others that 
it might be a tiny sticking point for some in the community.  It has been our 
intent since the creation of the policy that anyone and everyone can use the 
data, especially OSM.  

Because of this conversation, I now get to write a new disclaimer as the old 
one has become an issue.  It obviously was going to need it eventually.  So if 
anyone has some suggestions on that, please send them my way so we can get that 
through the attorney in the coming weeks and avoid and confusion moving 
forward.  😉

Thanks,

Joe

My goodness, ladies and gentlemen:  put an attribution to Dakota County, 
Minnesota on the correct section of our Contributors wiki page (4.4.something) 
and be done with this!
