If the OSMF board abandoned OSM, maybe a dozen people would notice the difference. If the contributors abandoned OSM, well, the outcome would be obvious. Before this whole licence thing blew up, how many people even knew about OSMF? If things were done right, and this issue hadnt dragged on for 3 years, I suspect many of us possibly wouldnt have even heard of OSMF, and would have simply continued contributing data. The only action I can see the foundation has done in recent history, is to disenfranchise users by dragging legalities out for far too long. Sure, they might say theyve 'made progress' or 'formed working groups' or whatever, but Im seeing very little progress and very little work from the groups.
