I sent an email to Nearmap today to clarify about licensing of derived data, the gist of the response was they won't accept anything less than a share alike license, while the ODBL may be compatible, the new Contributor Terms (CTs) aren't so on top of all the cc-by data going bye bye, all the Nearmap data will disappear as well. So unless the CTs change to accommodate these issues, we're looking at a very dismal and demoralising map, especially in some rural areas that recently became mapped out extensively, or we're going to need to serious start working on building up the needed infrastructure to be in a position to fork when the license change over occurs. I wish I could be more optimistic but at this stage I doubt that the CTs will be updated to accommodate us or anyone else in our position. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
