That poll is a bit misleading because there are two potential problems
with imports.  One is the relicensing clause, but the other is the
"grant to OSMF a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual,
irrevocable license to do any act that is restricted by copyright over
anything within the Contents, whether in the original medium or any
other".  It's hard to see how the ODbL can work without the latter.
