Please take note that the legal term "database"* is different from the technical term "database". Just because one website's data is in just one PostgreSQL or MySQL "database" doesn't mean that this whole "database" needs to be licensed under ODbL. * According to the European Database Directive, a "database" is "a collection of independent works, data or other materials arranged in a systematic or methodical way and individually accessible by electronic or other means". _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
