yes. if the change to ODbL goes through it is likely that the OSM
tiles will remain CC BY-SA, or possibly move to a less restrictive
license. in either case, what you are proposing will still be legal -
and i think we want it to always stay that way.

Ok, this is also what I understood. But as far as I'm informed the OSM
project will change it's licensing soon (ODbl) - will it then still be legal
to use the OSM data the way we want to use it?
