For some people who don't think the ODbL is a good idea, the lack of attribution
is the main objection to it.  If it required that all maps and other works
produced from the data have an attribution, the ODbL might be more acceptable
to a larger section of the OSM community.

(This is not my personal viewpoint, BTW - I'm not bothered about attribution
and I disagree with the ODbL for other reasons.)
