OSM might be considered non‐commercial, but what about companies who use OSM? A licence to use data in a non‐commercial project is not necessarily one that allows distribution to others (commercial or not). This means such data can’t realistically be incorporated into OSM, but since non‐commercial organisations can use OSM they should have no problems also using both OSM data and this trail data together (barring OSM’s own licence ugliness).
