Hello, [I am sorry if this is a FAQ, but this matter is urgent, and a cursory web search has not provided sufficient information for me to answer these questions]
I am in negotiation with a provider of aerial images (for Austria), who wants to allow "OpenStreetMap"pers to use these aerial images. So far, the terms clearly do not allow this, but the provider is willing to change the terms. He has made a new draft, where he restricts use of the images data directly, but allows derivative works, provided they be placed under CC BY SA 3.0 Österreich/Austria. I assume that the Austrian version of CC BY SA is compatible with the (generic/unported?) one OSM uses currently? (Can someone confirm this?) What about the compatibility of Versions 2.0 and 3.0? If we are allowed to redistribute derived work in Version 3.0, can we do so also in Version 2.0, as this is what OSM requires currently in my understanding? [Another issue of course is that we should be allowed dual licensing including ODbL, but I already clarified this to the image provider] Is there any other thing I should ensure being present in the license granted, to be usable by us?
