There has been a mailing list created for discussions related to the release of OSM data into the public domain. It can also be used to discuss other licensing/legal issues not directly related to the new license. Hopefully this will reduce some of the chatter on this list and will allow work on the new license to move forward.
You can find the info page for the new mailing list here: http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-general If there are no objections, I will delete the Yahoo Group that I created for public domain discussions.
