"Redaction bot is almost done. This weekend have seen a lot of improvements
to the redaction bot. The number of failing test cases are down from around
20 to 2. The work that remains is the interface to the database and all
small bits and pieces that is needed for the bot to run, and of course
testing."
So you don't need to guess - it's pretty much done already. The code, should
you feel in a hackish mood, is at
https://github.com/zerebubuth/openstreetmap-license-change . Alternatively
you could ask things on the rebuild@ list, or on #osm-dev on IRC.
Personally my favourite line is
"Doctor Feelgood" => "Drive Feelgood",

Thank you for these pointers, Richard. I am checking out (well, not
literally "checking out" as in "I'm going to hack on it" but rather
"observing") the code now.
I did not know there is also a rebuild@ list, and while I know about
#osm-dev on IRC, I have never visited or chatted/lurked there. (I
may not be alone on either of those, either).
Now, when and how will this bot run? Over the entire planet.osm? In
something like one-degree of latitude at a time swaths? (That's just
a guess). Can you sense my frustration when I feel like I should be
able to "just go and find these things out" (maybe in a big,
all-encompassing "License Change -- what you need to know, do and not
do" wiki page), but it really does appear to be a challenge?
My grade this week for "internal OSM communication" (amongst members
who both know and want to know): Better!
Thank you for these answers. I am finding that talk-us really can
and does work (though it is a bit klunky, and even so, I'll take it).
