- mapper contacts government asking for data
- government says "here, you can have that, but it may only be
distributed under ODbL or CC-BY-SA, nothing else"
- mapper contributes data to OSM without even *telling* us that there
is this additional requirement (CT only require that the mapper makes
sure data is "compatible with current license")
IMHO the problem exists, but can only happen if the mapper ignores the
community guidelines on imports*. That we don't do a particulary good
job of communicating and enforcing these additional, over the basic CT
terms, rules (not just on imports) is not a big secret, but something
that we can and should change going forward.

PS: essentially such an import should never get pass the community
discussion part in the first place.
