Then I don't have to reverse engineer my render to figure out if or if not it produces an internal database and worry about having to maintaining a snapshot of that database for ever and what legal consequences there might be if my dog eats the backup, etc. I'd be back to the simplicity of CC-BY-SA, i.e. that all obligations of the licenses are met within the work I hand out itself and have no additional work (or worries) beyond producing the product in the first place. -- View this message in context: http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/Exception-in-Open-Data-License-Community-Guidelines-for-temporary-file-tp6504201p6530357.html Sent from the Legal Talk mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
