I do. I used be in the SA camp, until I realized that SA is probably hurting people who are doing creative stuff and would like to mix OSM data with works under different SA/copyleft licenses like the GPL. The new license is probably better for business people, who can afford a lawyer that is able to tell them what they are able to do with OSM data, but I'm afraid that most creative hobbists will be left with data that may or may not be used, and is better left alone. Of course there is still big value in plain printed maps and in routing data under any free license, and this is why I'm still contributing to the project; I would just be happier with a BSD/CC-BY like permissive license, or failing that PD -- Elena ``of Valhalla'' homepage: http://www.trueelena.org email: [email protected] _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
