I believe there is no urgency to do so until acceptances have been maximised, local issues that have a near term solution have been addressed and there is a sense of community consensus that it is time. The License Working Group will continue listening to all feedback.
There are a lot of open questions that have to be solved BEFORE any official licence change or "private" cleaning up the data ... - version history is incomplete: ways, which were splitted or joined, have lost parts of version history including mappers, that don't acceppted - what's about deleted objects? If a mapper, who don't accepted, for example has deleted a POI and mapped a building with similar tags, the building has to be deleted, but also the POI has to be restored?! So changesets may have to be verified for such things ... - Might be that it is not necessary to delete trivial edits (Might be "trivial" depends on the country of the edit ...) - ... and surely a mapper may decide to accept lately ... - ... So a "private clean-up" befor this questions are solved might - delete objects where it is not necessary (trivial, change decision) - not delete objects where it is necessary (splitted/joined ways which where partially mapped of non accepting mappers) - violate copyright, if he "copy" the old object - ...
