Yes but you're missing the point. I'm all for ditching the share-alike hassle but until we do that, everyone holds rights to their data and has *not* agreed to a clause that says the data is license-free for crisis mapping. There are 169 contributors to the OSM Haiti data set. If you get an OK from all of them, then the data can be released PD. You have my OK, and yours, so you'll just need another 167. They are: chippy, Elwood, Dave Smith, ikiya, bass, katpatuka, SK53, andygates, robert, olvagor, balrog-kun, AlNo, samlarsen1, harrierco, cetest, Lulu-Ann, fsteggink, Anthony Balico, Ithaca-import, Basstoelpel, Chris Parker, s_Frantz, toaster, bahnpirat, IknowJoseph, rendle, Hawkeye, neuhausr, Zambelli Limitada, florisje, vsandre, ColinMarquardt, davespod, Flacus, rurseekatze, FredB, Harry Wood, Esperanza36, alv, dmgroom, jaakkoh, vreimer, llibre, Mirko Küster, Phil Shipley, RDSantiago, Augustus Kling, ceyockey, zvenzzon, XBear, Leonardo Gutierrez, Gianfra, rjhale1971, Fairfield, jkjk, mbuege, Tim Litwiller, Jochen Plumeyer, Bráulio Bezerra, tomoki, AbeFroman, dankarran, Simone Gadenz, mightym, Andy Allan, JP CASSOU, AssetBurned, mapistanbul, MCA, daveemtb, AndrewL, seejay, aude, Black_Ivory_1986, nazotoko, JeLuF, lyx, AndreR, WillyBeato, mikes, -jha-, prantolima, rw__, om3g4, maning, kjon, miozzo, BugBuster, jgc, Ciprian, Bman, bri g, stuphi, higa4, Richard, Bikeman2000, wambacher, STA, RichardB, Eddy Frometa, Osbornec, Luther__, Hobby Navigator, Quentel, simone, Mountainman2, MatWay, nfrantz0, tiger, imapi, Gurduloo, ALE!, harfner, Ivanovici, muffu, Grausewitz, Diego Guidotti, Divebalu, Islanit, keinseier, ij_, MAPconcierge, ivansanchez, alfa91, tcarobruce, giovand, ajeba, jamesks, comsomol, kallam, GrdScarabe, Mathbau, amillar, EdLoach, springmeyer, David Paleino, Dalkvist, nickb, Gandhi, sadam, sim, riad, pitscheplatsch, Claudius Henrichs, Wag, JRA2, Frankie Roberto, Cyrond, alexaforever, mdroads, Helder, crashi, vdb, jvbrug, fluteflute, discostu, usuyu, FK270673, ulfl, Tom_G3X, timothylclark, robhedrick, Rene_A, rcr, Jesús Gómez, Damouns, Andre68. (This might include a few people who have mapped in the DomRep or Cuba as these countries touch my excerpt area.) If you are willing to release a partial map, for example one that only has 300.000 of the 336.000 objects, then you need only convince the first 25 of these people as they, together, account for over 90% of the data. Of course then you have to make sure that what these 25 did was not virulently affected by what the other 140 did whom you did not ask, and any of whom may later sue one of the charities you have given the data to.
