I sent an email to this user, and not only did he accept, but he's made nearly 30 changes in the past 19 hours since he accepted! For reference, here's the text I sent, based on one from Simon Poole: Dear FIRST LAST, You haven't been active in the OpenStreetMap project for quite a while, but I see that you've made quite a lot of contributions in and around SPECIFIC_AREAS [0]. In fact, you are the RANKth most prolific contributor in the USA! [1] Since you haven't been active since LAST_EDIT_DATE, you may have missed that the last phase of the re-licensing process has started. In other words, if you do not agree to the new contributor terms the community will have to remove and remap the data that you have contributed, mostly in and around SPECIFIC_AREAS. Even if you don't intend to actively participate in the future, it would still be important for all other users and mappers if you could license your data under the new license. Here is the official announcement: http://www.osmfoundation.org/wiki/License/We_Are_Changing_The_License You can see your user account here (username is "USERNAME"): http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/USERNAME You can accept the license in the profile of your OSM account or here after logging in: http://openstreetmap.org/user/terms If you've forgotten your password and no longer have access to the email you originally used with the account (to reset the password), you can email [email protected] to reset your password. If you have any questions, please feel free to email or call me. -YOUR_NAME YOUR_EMAIL YOUR_PHONE [0]: http://yosmhm.neis-one.org/?USERNAME - This page shows a "heatmap" of your contributions to OSM [1]: http://odbl.poole.ch/usa-20111208-20120208-poly.html - This page shows users which haven't agreed to the new terms yet _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
