But only with the condition that they give everyone else those rights when publishing the data (via cc-by-sa or odbl). There's a slight change to attribution in that redirection which is just a formalisation of the current practice of attribution to OSM, and a wiki page for large contributors. The only extra right you give OSMF here, over and above everyone else, is the license change part -- and that can only be initiated by OSMF, the rest has to go to a vote of the OSM contributors. With cc-by-sa you currently give this right to Creative Commons, who think we should be using CC0 for data anyway.
