The word in Spanish is more like "altered". It doesn't matter if we get a 100% equivalent. Because of law issues -unrelated to copyright- original files directly from source cannot be shared. However, any transformation -including file format- gives full copyrights to the author of the alteration, which effectively makes them "almost PD+attribution". Law is strange, I agree :-) He definitely can share the .osm. -- Jaime Crespo
