Hi Simon,
In relation to the Legit, yes, your not the first one to raise this
question. I would be happy if you or someone within OSM community can
provide an example of Legit or Not Legit topo map as a source, if not for
this case then at least for the future.
Regarding the data itself, of course I still have the SHP File, I do fully
intend to start complementing OSM for Kosova and the region once the Dev.
Seed is done with the new tool they're working on. I think it'll make it a
lot easier then.
Best,
Bekim

To help understand better, this is how data got into OSM:
I digitized the data from topo maps
Shared the SHP File with FLOSSK in Prishtina
FLOSSK recruited many volunteers to get the data in OSM
Few months later data was removed from OSM
Anyway, unless there is a way to get some of that data back into the map,
then I don't see any benefit of continuing this conversation.
Assuming a) the topo maps are a legit source (out of copyright or
explicit permission) and b) you still have the SHP files, sure it is still
possible (and if it is just by providing the files as an overlay which is
preferable to an import anyway).
From the mails it would seem as if you do not actually have an OSM account
or at least you were not involved with the importing yourself, then I can
only point back to the importers. They would have had it in their hands to
document the import properly, provide support during the licence change if
explicit permission for further use was necessary and so on.
