Dear Friends,
Finnish Government is preparing their general open data license. Now there is period of public discussion about new guidelines. You can also participate: http://www.jhs-suositukset.fi/web/guest/news/palautepyynto-avointen-tietoain eistojen-kayttolupa. Yes, It is in Finnish. Maybe difficult to understand ;-) However, basic rule will be that all Finnish public data sets should be licensed under CC-BY-4.0. They can also use CC0, if necessary. National Land Survey of Finland's topographic datasets are already released with OSM compatible data license. But there is more data sets coming from municipalities and other gov agencies (like address data) which we can use to make OSM better. Questions: Is CC-BY-4.0 compatible with OSM current license (ODbl)? If data is released under CC-BY-4.0: can we import it to OSM? Rgs, Pekka ps. CC-4.0 license draft is here: http://staging.creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode -- Pekka Sarkola Gispo Oy <mailto:pekka.sark...@gispo.fi> pekka.sark...@gispo.fi - GSM +358 40 725 2042 <http://www.gispo.fi> www.gispo.fi - <http://www.paikkatieto.com> www.paikkatieto.com
