Look, I don't think there's anyone on this list that particularly likes the way the license change was handled. Certainly not me. But sometimes shit happens, and we can either move forward, or keep banging our heads against the wall complaining about wretchedly unfair it all is. Refusing to accept the CTs will not change the CTs and it won't change the licence used by OSM. All it does is cause that data to be deleted. > Really, you told him his car's not worth shit and you don't want it > unless he also joins Family First.

Yep, there's no question whatsoever that "I" (meaning OSMF) have behaved like a complete dick. Now, do we continue this game of "well, you behaved like a dick, so I'm going to behave like a dick", or do we take the higher moral ground of "well, you behaved like a dick, but I joined this project for the good of the greater community, and I'm not going to let my hurt feelings get in the way of that". What's more important - the ideological dispute with OSMF, or building an awesome map database?
