[OSM-talk] OSMF License Working Group recommends license change-over go ahead

2012-09-03 Thread Michael Collinson
Thanks to Paul Norman and the data working group completing some 
post-redaction clean-ups,  I have been able to send the following 
recommendation to the OSMF board. I understand that they will consider 
this at their meeting on Wednesday in Tokyo. This, I hope!, will be the 
last in a series of checks and balances to ensure that the change-over 
process goes in a responsible fashion.


The License Working Group understands that  DWG has completed redaction 
runs and believes the live published database to be clean.  LWG has also 
reviewed a number of cases and is satisfied that the redaction bot 
performed correctly and that all issues reported immediately after the 
main run have been investigated and properly responded to. It is 
therefore our recommendation that the license under which OpenStreetMap 
geodata is published be changed from CC-BY-SA to Open Database License 
(ODbL) 1.0 as per 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Open_Database_License/Implementation_Plan 
Subject to board approval, we request that a date and time be set so 
that key documents can be changed.

[Talk-de] Fwd: [OSM-talk] OSMF License Working Group recommends license change-over go ahead

2012-09-03 Thread Michael Kugelmann

FYI: da nicht jeder die englischen talk bzw. Osmf-talk liest:

Als einfache nicht wörtliche Übersetzungmeinerseits nachfolgend:
1) die Data Working Group glaubt, dass sie alle zur Lizenz-Umstellung 
nötigen Aufräum-Aktionen abgeschlossen sind
2) die Licence Working Group hat dies verstanden und empfieht dem 
Board den Lizenz-Wechsel anzuordnen (Durchführung abschließender 
Aufgaben der LWG) und die Umstellung öffentlich anzukündigen.
3) Das Board wird bei seinem Treffen in Tokyo am Mittwoch darüber 
diskutieren (und ggf. entscheiden).



Grüße,
Michael (K, nicht C!).
