Both variants have their pros and cons, (unless they decide to release under PD / CC0 what obviously is the best in terms of freedom). I'll give you an example: we have obtained in 2010 the permission from the national cartographic portal [1] to [derive features for osm from their aerial imagery distributed as WMS]. No mention of a license (or a particular dataset). When we changed the license in 2012 it didn't change anything, we can still derive features (and do this) until now. By the time they issued the permission, there was only imagery from 2006 and 2008, but since some time there is also imagery from 2012 which we still can use under the old, generic permission from 2010. If they had released a particular dataset under a particular license we probably wouldn't have been able to integrate new material as seamlessly as it was possible with this type of "for OSM"-permission, and maybe we would even have had to remove data due to the license change in 2012. cheers, Martin [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:ITALY_Auth_portale_cartografico_nazionale.png ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] Looking for a draft memo to allow an org to release data to OSM
Hi, In the spirit of free (as libre for sure), I think we must encourage to open data to everybody when is possible rather than just make release agreement. I'm not talk about share-alike or not, but just try make think open, for everyone. My 2 cents. Frédéric.

To make this as seamless as possible, where a party has agreed to release data to OSM, I want to be able to provide them with a document that essentially only requires them to fill in the blanks (name of party, data to be released, etc), which, once signed, gives us the necessary permission to use their data. At the very least, it could act as a template upon which they could draft their own version if need be. Basically I want to make the releasing of data as easy as possible and the drafting of permission is a possible roadblock that I hope can be avoided by being prepared in advance. Does such a thing exist? If not, who would be a good point-of-contact to engage with to get something like this drafted? (Legal WG?)

Pierre, Thanks for the quick response. That's exactly what I was looking for.

Can you post this online on the wiki, or send it to my email so I can do so? I'd like to have access to that document, as well as translating it to portuguese and use it here on Brazil. Thanks.
