Hi, Sorry in advance for the noob's question regarding the ongoing licence discussion, but I feel this might be an important matter to answer for "watching guys like me"
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Open_Data_License/Implementation_Plan says : "Week 13 * Final cut-off. Community Question... What do we do with the people who have said no or not responded? " This seams strange to me not to answer this before the question is asked, obviously, my feeling or answer is based on the "what will happen to data" (and not only mine, all data I have access right now) To make it like azimov's laws, here is my personnal tree decision priority (no n+1 rule can overwrite a n rule): 1) I want the data to be free to use 2) I want the data to be accessible 3) I want it's licence to be clear and efficient *1) free as "libre" *2) no point in having a super licence to missing data *3) ODL seams to fits best my wiches, but CC does not that badly The 2 VS 3 is of course a matter of magnitude, If I'm sure none of the data I use, modified, or created will become unavailable, then that's perfect, if all is to be removed, then that's horrible. Is there a threshold consensus ? In other terms, what percentage lost will be accepted until the licence change is abandonned ? I do understand that the vote outcome whould probably be different if that question is answered, so will this answer be... after the vote A two rounds voting might help maybe ? (And the gun will only be used on the second round, which might not be what some want) -- sly Sylvain Letuffe [email protected] qui suis-je : http://slyserv.dyndns.org _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
