+1 the data contained in produced works remains ruled by ODbL / share alike, this is stated in 4.3: 4.3 Notice for using output (Contents). Creating and Using a Produced Work does not require the notice in Section 4.2. However, if you Publicly Use a Produced Work, You must include a notice associated with the Produced Work reasonably calculated to make any Person that uses, views, accesses, interacts with, or is otherwise exposed to the Produced Work aware that Content was obtained from the Database, Derivative Database, or the Database as part of a Collective Database, and that it is available under this License. I agree it's hard to believe that geocoding would be considered creating a produced work and not a derivative database (maybe we have a different idea what one is doing when "geocoding"). the definition for produced work is “Produced Work” – a work (such as an image, audiovisual material, text, or sounds) resulting from using the whole or a Substantial part of the Contents (via a search or other query) from this Database - See more at: http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1.0/#sthash.l1YXFGoW.dpuf some use of geocoding might lead to producing a "work" like an "image, audiovisual material, text, or sounds" but the data behind it remains ODbL and if you reuse those locations obtained by geocoding you'd have to do it under ODbL IMHO. Generally what I think about when reading "geocoding": you'd take a list of addresses and use the database to localize (translate) them in geo coordinates. This seems to fit perfectly to the derivative db description: “Derivative Database” – Means a database based upon the Database, and includes any translation, adaptation, arrangement, modification, or any other alteration of the Database or of a Substantial part of the Contents. This includes, but is not limited to, Extracting or Re-utilising the whole or a Substantial part of the Contents in a new Database. - See more at: http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1.0/#sthash.l1YXFGoW.dpuf cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
