Back in May I pointed out the need for human readable contributor
terms. That resulted in some discussion and a human readable version
of the terms drafted by the LWG:
http://github.com/avar/openstreetmap-website/compare/master...topic/human-readable-contributor-terms
However, those terms still have't been added to the website because
someone from the legal team hasn't given that the go-ahead, I've been
in contact with Mike Collinson about this, but he's very busy.
This is how the human readable terms look:

And this is the patch to implement that:
http://github.com/avar/openstreetmap-website/compare/master...topic/human-readable-contributor-terms
The human readable terms are also translatable, so users that don't
speak English legalese will be able to understand them.
Can someone else in the LWG give this the go-ahead? I don't mean to
rush this, but these terms are being read by a lot of users these
days, and they're being asked to agree to them. It would be nice if
more people were able to understand them when doing so.
Thanks.
