I'm pretty much contributing to OSM as I always have. I don't have
much interest in a fringe fork populated mainly by the disgruntled. It
reminds me a bit of Citizendium - the fork of Wikipedia you've
probably never heard of.

Of course, my continuing with OSM is not a vote of confidence in the
licence chance process - I really resent many parts of the way it's
been handled, particularly Frederik Ramm's dismissive attitude. I
really wish OSM had someone of Jimmy Wales' calibre as a community
leader.
