Re: [Talk-GB] GB License Change Readiness
Sorry to ask such a naive sounding question in this thread where there are clearly many involved who know *a lot about the subject, but I am left rather unsure about what we mean when we say that we need to do some re-mapping of nodes and ways which are in danger of removal when only contributions from new licence acceptors is allowed in the OSM database. Seems to be one of two processes (in order of decreasing level of effort required): 1. Delete the features contributed by the non-acceptor. Replace with brand new feature from either gps survey or from acceptable imagery/mapping sources or combination. If I understand correctly then if the non-acceptor is the author of version 1 of the feature, then this will result in loss of all subsequent history as well, so that we will essentially have version 1 of a new feature and no trace of the previous feature. 2. Review the history of the feature. Decide if, even though the original contribution was from a non-acceptor, enough has been done by other licence-accepting contributors that the feature no longer belongs to the original contributor. If this is the case, tag with odbl=clean and forget about it. My question is : Are both of these approaches acceptable from a legal/ethical perspective and will they both work (ie will both result in features that will make it into the database following Apr 1st? For features in my local area (NE Wales) I and others with local knowledge could clearly follow either or both of these approaches, but (2) is obviously less time-consuming and preserves much more of other people's hard work.

Hi Matt Peter is unlikely to accept the new CTs but has not yet declined. Blackadder has emailed him recently but not got a response. Peter was very active and has contributions all over the West Midlands from various mapping parties so it would be a shame to lose his contribution but I'm not optimistic.

Re: [Talk-GB] GB License Change Readiness
Thanks, I was able to use http://osm.virtuelle-loipe.de/history browser successfully. It took me 21 minutes to analyse manually but that could be sped up by putting the declined/undecided/accepted status next to the user in the first results view, (am emailing author Langläufer). I guess it should also be possible to build an automated relation-status viewer fairly easily(?). Conclusion: The way was created by an accepted user and tagging is slightly refined but always by an accepted user. One way has been added by a declined user ... this is the only tainting. Question: Am I right in thinking that a general rule emerges that this and similar relations can be marked odbl=clean ... member additions are irrelevant, during a database re-build, the addition of the way is going to be detached when that way (rather than the relation) is processed?

Re: [Talk-GB] GB License Change Readiness
Personally, I am still working to find a way forward so that OSM can remain compatible with Creative Commons. I joined OSM to help make a free Creative Commons (or compatible) map of the world and that remains my goal. There are a couple of avenues I am working on which I'd be happy to talk about by email or face to face. I had hoped that discussions with the LWG might result in a reasonable compromise such as continuing to offer CC-BY-SA in parallel with ODbL, and that I would be able to persuade other pro-CC mappers to support that too. But I can't speak for what others will do. I really don't want to just give up and go home unless every possibility has been exhausted.

What you really should do is first agree to the Contributor Terms and *then* continue working, from within OSM, towards a future compatibility with whatever CC license seems most suitable. I think it would be a good idea for OSM(F) to take an active role in Creative Commons' deliberations leading to their future 4.0 set of licenses provided we have the manpower for that. Holding back your agreement and essentially forcing people to re-map those of your contributions they consider valuable - and they will have to start with that *now*, not in three months - is not a good basis for your future involvement in this process. I don't think there's anybody here who believes that no CC license will ever be suitable for OSM. Personally I would not be surprised if we should change to a CC license in two or three years time. The contributor terms give us the option of doing that in a relatively painless way and without data loss. For this to happen, we need people in OSM who know about the licenses, who care about the project, and who want to help shape its future. You could be one of them. Or you could give up and go home.

However, the issue at the moment is that in many cases Undecided = Unreachable due to spam filters, no longer valid email addresses, and sadly decease or impacity. So we don't know. Due to privacy considerations, that is as far as the License Working Group can go. I hope that the current initiative will reach more due to personal knowledge and contact by other UK mappers. There are also some undecided and declined contributors who are making a point but may accept at the last moment. I hope we are sending out an equitable signal that this *is* the last moment without shutting the door. I personally wait a week, i.e. at least one weekend, and then pile in and remap what I can.

Re: [Talk-GB] GB License Change Readiness
I'm concerned about some of the big relations we have. For example, National Cycle Network Route 8 (relation 34269). This relation has at least one user who has declined the CT [1], unfortunately this user's edit is buried deep in the history of this object. Recreating this relation from scratch would be a *lot* of work, as it covers lane and paths across hundreds of miles. It seems like the vast majority of contributions to this relation are ODBL-clean, but I have no idea how to make the whole thing clean short of remapping it. Any suggestions?

There is no chuffing way I am allowing our NCN coverage to go to pot on 1st April! Least of all Lon Las Cymru (NCN 8): http://vimeo.com/6623643 Anyone who can spot when Richard Fairhurst goes to Wales... (It's a terrific route - anyone with a taste for adventure should cycle it. That and the equally wonderful Pennine Cycleway [NCN68].) There's two elements to fixing long-distance route relations: the constituent ways, and the relation itself. First job is to make sure the ways themselves are ok. You can do that easily with the aid of any editor (even J***) and Frederik's OSM Inspector, which now offers OpenCycleMap as background imagery. After that, the relation itself should be pretty trivial. I'm intending to write a couple of scripts to help safeguard these relations, but please don't wait for it; go ahead and remap the constituent ways. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/GB-License-Change-Readiness-tp7164773p7166061.html Sent from the Great Britain mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
