There is a new support page here. I'm going to update the page with some of the data imports that have been done in Australia, most of the ones from government sources being CC-BY (not -SA). As far as I'm aware the conditions of CC-BY should be met by being ODbL, so the licensing wouldn't be a problem, however I'm wondering about the contributor-terms bit. If I recall correctly, there was discussion that bulk imports could be exempted from the contributor terms - for example AND isn't going to let us arbitrarily re-license their data, so we'd have to exempt that if we wanted to keep it. We're trading off the usefulness of the data for being beholden to the company if we want to re-license in the future. How does a decision about whether the tradeoff is worth it, and hence gets exempted from the contributor terms, get made? Presumably AND data would get one, but my personal edits wouldn't be worth the tradeoff. We're getting more Australian government data coming along, so what should we be doing to either know that it can be exempted or that we shouldn't import it? -- James Doc Livingston ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
