Share Alike is the expression for fear of abuse. In my mind there cant be any abuse of OSM data. I want the OSM Data to be available everywhere and anyone. And it needs to be a no brainer which it isnt right now. For corporations its most of the time easier to spend 500K€ on a commercial dataset than to spend 5k€ on a Lawyer analyzing a licensing issue. ANY restriction is a problem for adoption as one can see e.g. from the discussion about geocoding data. Flo -- Florian Lohoff f...@zz.de
