New data and sources must currently be compatible with CC-By-SA, and
ODbL. Preferably also CT/ODbL.
"CC BY SA 3.0 Österreich/Austria" is not sufficient permission because
of the requirement for ODbL, but also because OSM is currently
CC-By-SA v2.0. CC-By-SA does have an "or later" clause, but does not
permit "or earlier".
