That is my understanding as well. I've been against relicensing from the very beginning. It's simply not possible for OSM to be "ripped off", because OSM is not the data; it's the community. Currently, we are harming the community to preserve the data, which is exactly bass-ackwards. I think I'm going to say this once every six months or thereabouts. -- --my blog is at http://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
