This old saw again, "JohnSmith"? Every time the community is asked, they support progress in the form of ODbL rather than the inappropriate CC-By-SA. Here is the latest feedback for you. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Category:ODbL_Supporter http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Category:Users_Rejecting_ODbL So you can help too. Would you like to contact a CC-By or CC-By-SA data publisher and request permission to contribute their data to OSM under ODbL / CT? Would you like to participate in the discussion of exactly how and which data should be excluded when OSM proceeds? http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/dev/2010-August/020124.html Would you like to recommend to other mappers to avoid problematic sources until things are settled in the long term? Would you like to meet with, coach and encourage new mappers? _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
