Hello Henk, The process has always been described as consisting of at least 2 phases: 1. Asking contributors to relicense and 2. Using the new license, which entails deleting stuff. The vote by OSMF members was to allow the directors to use their discretion in these two phases. The poll only concerned the first phase. It does not tell us if "a large majority (was) in favor of the proposed change". To do that you need another poll: "Will the benefits of the ODbL license outweigh the deletion of the data ?".
