That would only be the case if/when we proceed to the next stage in the licence change process and you still hadn't accepted the (possibly amended) terms by then. A "decline" choice at the moment can be reversed at any time, and in the mean time you can continue to edit and your previous edits remain in the database. (But I'm not sure if this has now been made clear anywhere on the CTs form -- I only found out when I asked the LWG what would happen if I declined when forced to make a choice.) If you're not certain that you're previous contributions satisfy the CTs, then surely the best course of action is not to sign until such time as you are. If people are signing up with potentially incompatible data just to ensure that their other contributions doesn't get deleted, then that rather defeats the whole point of the strict CTs. The more people that don't sign up yet because of the uncertainties, the more pressure there will be for OSMF to find a solution that allows OS OpenData to be used.
