Possibly. But if so that BY-SA doesn't extend to the underlying data, so it's rather useless. Furthermore, you can't use pre-existing BY-SA data in your "Produced Work", as that would violate the BY-SA clause that "You may not offer or impose any terms on the Work that restrict the terms of this License or the ability of the recipient of the Work to exercise the rights granted to that recipient under the terms of the License." The point of BY-SA is that you can do whatever you want with the work, so long as you attribute and the derivative is BY-SA. If you can't reverse engineer the work to extract out the underlying data, and use that underlying data under BY-SA, then the work can't meaningfully be said to be under BY-SA. _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
