[OSM-legal-talk] Natural person in CT 3

2010-09-20 Thread Jukka Rahkonen
Clause 3 in CTs says:

 An active contributor is defined as:
a contributor natural person (whether using a single or multiple accounts) 

This aims, I suppose, at giving only one vote for each natural person. How could
this be checked? The real identity of contributer has never been asked, all we
have is the user name - email combination.

 On the other hand, if someone has two accounts, we probably can rely on the

Currently it's being suggested that people create a second account so
they can agree to the CTs, this doesn't seem to be the sort of thing
that people should be told, since agreeing to the CTs is supposed to
cover a person not an account.

The Active Contributor definition covers a person, not an account.
The rest of the CT is a contract covering Content which I assume is
anything uploaded under the specific account, although it isn't made
clear.

a last minute explanatory add-on
initially CTs were per person
now the rules slide and change and now the CTs have to be read with an
an addendum.
Put the details in the CTs, and write them out properly.

Exactly, you agree to the CTs as a person, which then encompasses all
accounts used, unless the wording of the current CTs is changed your
suggestion shouldn't be given.
