Re: [OSM-legal-talk] instead of replacing data can I just revert to the last known "clean" version?

This is the only chance to keep object history. This should apply to all nodes if this tag is set on a way. At least for nodes without additional tags this should be a reasonable assumption. No one will really draw or verify way nodes independent from creating/verifying a way. tainted nodes with additional tags should retain only the position. This is really important to keep connectivity of the road network intact. if the node tags are tainted we can not keep them.

You are not even willing to spend the time to read minutes and emails but expect individual response. If every mapper of the 10-20k active mappers expects this then tell me how the LWG or OSMF can do this? hire 500 lawyers to repeatedly answer the same question? What I have learned only a lawyer or a court desicion can give final answers. Whatever LWG says is less than an advise and absolutely not binding. and just to be clear, I am not an osmf member or in any way involved in the license change. Just tired of endless discussions and disrespect of the work these guys are doing. ___ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
