after reading all the documents/wiki/mailinglist I am still confused:
what forces producers to publish a derivative database and not just
produced work?
Clause 4.6 of the ODbL, which says if you publish a produced work you
must make the database it was produced from available.
usecase:
a user takes a substantial part of osm db, hand modifies it (eg changes
name of a street to correct one, make a new hiking route ...) and then
publishes it as an online tilemap/printed map. claiming it to be a produced
work under a commercial licence.
is it a produced work?
The online tilemap and printed map are a produced work.
is it also a derivative database?
(if so, which odbl clause kicks in to state this?)
The database is a derivative database as defined in the definitions section.
Correcting names and adding hiking routes which connect with OSM's data
is exactly the sort of data the share-alike clause is intended to capture.
