(I don’t see Richard’s original email, so I’ll reply here.) OSM is hardly un-political, heck, making your work PD is a political statement in itself. You’re just in the PD party, that’s all. > Not: You don't give us your data, fine, then we create a complex legal > licensing framework that will ultimately get you bogged down … That’s enough, really. As unserious as Richard can be this is just trolling. If you have a problem with the share-alike, you’re doing something wrong, you’re bogging yourself down. If you have a problem using the data within the intent of the share-alike then that is a problem that needs to be addressed.
