I'm not on legal-talk, but I was pointed at this post today:

  http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/legal-talk/2010-August/003975.html

It says that the legal principle is (probably; it's asking for legal
confirmation) that if anyone is allowed to use it according to its
official license, that license constitutes explicit permission, even if
you haven't received personal permission.

The list archives don't show any response from OSMF legal counsel on the
issue yet.
