Yes, I have read through something like that before. That doesn't answer what happens with the entire city of Gothenburg... For example, much of it is mapped by a user who has not edited since October 2009... The probability that this user will see and accept the new terms is very low. We can, however, suspect that s/he would have nothing against them. My problem with the licence change is how things like this are to be solved.
