Firstly, the pro-PD people could propose a "strings attached" deal to OSMF as a condition for relicensing their data. After relicensing, the pro-PD people have their leverage watered down by the contributor terms.
Speaking as a pro-PD person, I think I am happy enough with what's on the table; I do not think I have to try to twist OSMF's (or the other contributors') arm(s).
In fact, I think there are enough people proclaiming that "unless OSMF does <X> I will not relicense". I'd rather not be seen joining that chorus now.
I am happy that OSMF have added the PD option to the relicensing question, and I will try to convince as many mappers as possible to tick it. It makes no difference for the legal side of implementing ODbL but I hope that the Pro-PD outcome will be large enough to make a statement which may influence what happens in the future.
I wouldn't ask for more at this time. Bye Frederik -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail frede...@remote.org ## N49°00'09" E008°23'33" _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
