Two years or 3 its not that important osm will recover.  Community based 
mapping is too important to be abandoned for reliance on commercial mapping 
organisations.  Its also a lot of fun which takes the edge off having to re-map 
areas.   I am however kind of surprised at the attitude by some that seems to 
relish the removal of data from OSM.  Leaving it in would result in no loss to 
the individual at all even if they were to continue mapping on another 
community based map project.

I think you are over hopeful here.
To do what I have done has taken 3 years. It covers a vast area which
people rarely visit as well as areas which are more often travelled.

I am not changing from CC-by-SA, and others do feel the same way, 

The green / yellow / red map only covered ways, and not nodes. I would
survey a lot of nodes, marking POI and that work too would be discarded
from ODBL-OSM.
