I think with the clause in the uploading terms that OSM can change the license its very difficult to import anything as it is difficult to say to City of Ottawa etc we'd like your data but we don't know what license it may have in OSM in the future.
Is anyone going to take the responsibility on for removing the data? Thanks Cheerio John On 28 February 2016 at 20:37, Stewart C.
