Tom
this Ottawa license seems compatible with ODbl. Then, I think that the data can
be imported. You can add to the relation the tag source=City of Ottawa.
I have not done any yet, but it does not seem to complicate. Wiki pages should
give godd information. Also, looking at some Bus relations should help to
understand the content.
In the relation, you enter nodes for every stop. From discussions I have seen
elsewhere, I think that It is important to control the quality of such data
before you import.
