I do rather agree with you that trying to nail down and exclude all the nefarious and evil things that might be done by the OSMF is a pointless endeavour. It is the same kind of paranoia that brought us the overcomplicated and legalistic ODbL licence. It probably makes more sense to state things like 'there should be a vote of active contributors before any licence change' or 'the OSMF is there to support the project but not control it' as community expectations or a kind of 'constitution', rather than trying to put them into the CTs or other legal documents. -- Ed Avis <e...@waniasset.com> _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
