TBH I really don't care that much about how OSM is licenced, as long as it's 
not a proprietary licence, but I believe that if people aren't attributing 
correctly, it's most likely an oversight than anything else. A polite and 
importantly, private, email is appropriate. "Naming and shaming" in instances 
of simple oversight sounds dangerously close to authoritarianism and I very 
strongly believe OSM should not even consider going anywhere near there, 
*unless* someone steals OSM data and then claims it's their own.
