Why we need a SA for all merged Data?
I understand ODbL like this: If you Merge some Data with OSM Data and
create something (e.g. a map) from that you have to publish the merged
data under ODbL(or compatible).
so why we need that?
With SA we intend that no one can fork OSM under a restrictive Licence,
and every product with OSM-Data in it should pronounce "osm inside"
isn't it? (did I forget something?)
but mostly a fork isn't the intention of merging.
Mostly you will delete the merged data after making the intended product!?
so you can't merge OSM (e.g. for routing) with other restricted Data.
maybe we should think back to what we really intend with a Licence.
