The issue for both licences is just getting the attribution right. I think you've taken the view that just an attribution in the data is sufficient, and nothing on the map itself? I think it is best in both cases just to agree with the data owner what constitutes reasonable attribution for the medium, and that we can deliver it.

If the data is available, then making it available to trace or very selectively import could be useful. I don't think we want to go down the path of another significant data load with poor quality data with lots of fixme tags. I'm yet to see anything on the GA that I think would make an appropriate bulk import to OSM, not that there isn't lots of good stuff there. Of more interest are some of the city detail info that we've discussed previously on this list, some of which is hard to obtain by survey. Ian.
