Re: [OSM-talk] OSM : It's a shame !!!
If I remember correctly (someone correct me if I don't), a lawyer has agreed that it's okay to keep node positions and ways where a user would reasonably have created the same way from an ODbL compatible data source. So for example, in this case, the user could reasonably create the exact same way by tracing bing, and hence is fine in terms of copyright breach. The less destructive way to do this would be to simply mark the way as odbl=clean rather than deleting the original and creating a new one with the same node positions though.

Re: [OSM-talk] OSM : It's a shame !!!
Hello, First of all, let me just say it is indeed impolite to share private conversation but I would love to see that tested in a court. That said, the whole point of people in FOSM waiting for OSM to fail is kind of annoying. I understand why the fork happened (doesn't mean that I agree with it); I understand why some people are reacting the way they do but I have to admit it is getting ridiculous. FOSM is a fork. It is a conscious statement that you wanted to break away. I am glad that you guys had that *freedom* in the first place (despite all the FUD that the new contributor terms won't allow forking) and I wish you the best of luck in this project as I wish the best of luck to other mapping projects like Common map for example. Now, you decided to leave the project so just leave it. I am not going to go to FOSM and ask for my data to be deleted playing on my moral right for example (even though sometimes I am seriously tempted to ask for my data to be removed out of exasperation due to the behaviour of some members of FOSM). If you strongly believe that ODbL won't stand the legal scrutiny, mount a legal challenge to it. Just do it. That said, you have to realize that ODbL is currently the licence that is being used more and more in France for OpenData and actually across the world having being reviewed by several legal departments. You may not agree with the way it was drafted but it seriously look like it has some legs. If you point out elements that have been copied, we will be happy to make sure that people is not copying from your data. Anyway up to a point, the data will be replaced and the very use of copyright on fact is tenuous at best. I think from that point of view, despite all the mistakes the foundation made during the process (we are after all volunteers), the foundation has shown lot of willingness to sort many issues; it just that at some points we can only agree to disagree hence why there was a fork. You are just trolling. You are not even constructive towards FOSM. From the way I look at it, FOSM is only a half hearted fork where there are only a few people actually contributing, the rest of them is just sulking that OSM didn't go their way. Maybe it is time to be more constructive towards the choice that you made. From that point of view, I really appreciate the work of some people in FOSM who are actually being constructive. In short, feel free to complain when your data is *REALLY* used wrongly. Else, put up or shut up regarding the ODbL. If you really believe that it is not going to work, mount a proper legal challenge.

That said, the whole point of people in FOSM waiting for OSM to fail is kind of annoying. I think someone has given you the wrong impression about FOSM. It's a free-standing fork of OSM that differs only in that it continues to use CC-BY-SA. We consider this to be a better license for contributors and we feel that contributors are the most valuable part of the equation. Sadly, OSM does not appear to value or care for contributors interests as much as I once hoped it would. Nobody expects OSM to fail. I was the first to point out to Steve Coast, in 2006, that OSM was already an unstoppable train. Not even the stress caused by the license change could prevent it's success. I understand why the fork happened (doesn't mean that I agree with it); I understand why some people are reacting the way they do but I have to admit it is getting ridiculous. FOSM is a fork. In many ways OSM is the fork. It is the project that is unsatisified with the status-quo. Although it has not yet managed to publish anything under ODbL and I wouldn't bet money on it achieving that objective any time soon. It is a conscious statement that you wanted to break away.

Now, you decided to leave the project so just leave it. We all have the same goals. Free and open mapping data. Your language suggests you are trying to push people away. While there is indeed a license fork, there has never been a need for a fork of the community. You will recognise many fosm contributors as being major characters in the OSM community. I am not going to go to FOSM and ask for my data to be deleted playing on my moral right for example (even though sometimes I am seriously tempted to ask for my data to be removed out of exasperation due to the behaviour of some members of FOSM). Please explain more about the behaviour of fosm members? We don't have members as such, but I get what you mean. As far as I can see fosm contributors are a very happy and contented bunch. Especially when compared to some of the rhetoric on this list. If you strongly believe that ODbL won't stand the legal scrutiny, mount a legal challenge to it. Just do it. That said, you have to realize that ODbL is currently the licence that is being used more and more in France for OpenData and actually across the world having being reviewed by several legal departments.

From the way I look at it, FOSM is only a half hearted fork where there are only a few people actually contributing, the rest of them is just sulking that OSM didn't go their way. There's nothing half-hearted about fosm. Many of the people involved in it have been working with OSM since the very early days and are unlikely to go away. Some of OSMs most prolific contributors now contribute exclusively to fosm. Maybe it is time to be more constructive towards the choice that you made. From that point of view, I really appreciate the work of some people in FOSM who are actually being constructive. In short, feel free to complain when your data is *REALLY* used wrongly. Else, put up or shut up regarding the ODbL. If you really believe that it is not going to work, mount a proper legal challenge. No doubt, if the license change and redaction is not handled properly then it will end up in the courts. We will all lose if that happens. The laywers will be the only ones that win from that outcome.

[OSM-talk] OSM : It's a shame !!!
After having been banned from OSM for not signing the CT, my contributions, that have been well received by the community in the past have been removed by the april 1st license shift. The Foundation has called anyone in the community to reduce lost by remapping the concerned areas. However, it was not meant that the data were simply to be copied, deleted and re-pasted into the map using a fake account. This seems to be the case however, where my contributions were shamelessly copied and pasted back into the map. Of course I kept a dump from before april 1st where my name is linked to a number of roads in a specific area showing I denied the CT. And if I download the same area in OSM of today I find that this area has NOT been changed for a fraction of an inch. The old and new area projected on different layers in JOSM fit exactly on each other, even at the highest magnification available (15 cm = 1 inch on screen) The user involved is called It's so funny and I believe that fake account with obfuscated characters was not chosen for nothing, because it cannot be retrieved in OSM, at least not using JOSM Show info , and osm.org does not provide a contact info (otherwise I would have contacted this user first). However, it means that the current copy of the OSM database is not ODBL compliant anymore because parts of it remain clearly CC-by-SA , and these areas are plain copies of the work I carried out. This is sooo low. OSM, how low can you get ! Providing all the tools to check for ODBL compatibility and accepting copy and paste just like that by any stupid looser contributor.

Re: [OSM-talk] OSM : It's a shame !!!
Hi Gert, First, I'd like to make a semantic point – you were not banned from OSM for not signing up to the CTs, you are still welcome to contribute, as long as you contribute in a way that's compatible with the new license. More importantly though, what's happened here is absolutely reprehensible. They've violated your copyright, and endangered the whole project. Do you have a link to the changeset in which your data has been copied? I'm sure people will be more than willing to revert the change, and construct data from the sources we can use.

The Foundation has called anyone in the community to reduce lost by remapping the concerned areas. However, it was not meant that the data were simply to be copied, deleted and re-pasted into the map using a fake account. This seems to be the case however, where my contributions were shamelessly copied and pasted back into the map. Of course I kept a dump from before april 1st where my name is linked to a number of roads in a specific area showing I denied the CT. And if I download the same area in OSM of today I find that this area has NOT been changed for a fraction of an inch. The old and new area projected on different layers in JOSM fit exactly on each other, even at the highest magnification available (15 cm = 1 inch on screen) The user involved is called “ It’s so funny” and I believe that fake account with obfuscated characters was not chosen for nothing, because it cannot be retrieved in OSM, at least not using JOSM “Show info” , and osm.org does not provide a contact info (otherwise I would have contacted this user first). However, it means that the current copy of the OSM database is not ODBL compliant anymore because parts of it remain clearly CC-by-SA , and these areas are plain copies of the work I carried out. This is sooo low….. OSM, how low can you get ! Providing all the tools to check for ODBL compatibility and accepting copy and paste just like that by any stupid looser contributor. Why is there no tool for checking on copy paste copyright infringement… Because no-one meant to check on that ? user: cetest Gert Gremmen g.grem...@cetest.nl www.cetest.nl Kiotoweg 363 3047 BG Rotterdam T 31(0)104152426 F 31(0)104154953 Before printing, think about the environment. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] OSM : It's a shame !!!
I was under the impression that OSM is riddled with data that is not .odbl compliant. In some of my personal mapping my sources may not have been fully personal observation which is more or less what I understand .odbl requirements to be which is why I requested my contributions be deleted since I couldn't remember absolutely which were which. My more recent updates are .odbl compliant. The CANVEC imports I did could be quickly redone. In fact I note that some bright spark has been reimporting CANVEC 7 information over CANVEC 6 so suddenly there are lots of duplicates that the bots don't pick up because the source is different.

True. Copy / pasting is not the same as remapping from permitted sources.

No. I don't understand why the responses so far haven't mentioned the most glaring reason for this. The license-compliance redaction has not yet begun! Even your data that haven't been touched still remain because they have not yet begun the process of removing the non-compliant data (thankfully). -- Alan Mintz alan_mintz+...@earthlink.net ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
