Who with? > *And share-alike only applies to what we collect.* But the license doesn't exist to collect data for OSM. It exists to ensure that all the users (or in the terms of the license, all its recipients if you Use it Publicly) of that data, in combination with whichever other data and in whatever form and wherever they encounter it, are free to use it. If that leads to patients having better access to their medical data, people being able to find somewhere to park, players of games being able to maintain and modify them creatively to build communities around them and drive sales, and people being able to check the actual rankings of the restaurants they're being directed to that's definitely a win for Open Data. - Rob. _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
