You've made a couple of big incorrect assumptions, firstly we have a big lack of contributors at present in Australia and you are saying it's ok to loose some major contributors just so data can be licensed under "something better". If you can make something better why not start your own project without impacting on the work of others instead of making others jump through so many hoops? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
