Just on a technical note, that doesn't get you all the history as you miss multi-edits per week, plus planet files didn't always include the user. You'd need a full history dump from the database for that (and access to the pre-0.5 node, segment and way histories too). On the license note ffs guys, legal-talk-general i believe, where you can continue to disagree fundamentally without bothering the rest of us. Vote: I really don't care.
