So is Phase 4 the end for those that don't agree? What happens to the
data if we don't agree? and the data built on top of that data?
I have read what I could about the new Contributor Terms and I get the
drift about the CC-BY-SA and ODbL. Just not sure about the OSMF bit.

... the License Working Group intends implementing Phase 3 of the
license change implementation plan [1]. This involves blocking edits
with HTTP "Forbidden" messages until the individual contributor has
Accepted/Declined the new terms by logging in manually via browser at
http://www.openstreetmap.org. The text of the message will explain the
reason. This will happen Real Soon Now, I hope within the next few
days. We will give at least 48 hours notice on the main Talk and other
mailing lists of the exact date/time.
Please would you check that your editor software has some mechanism
for your users.
For clarity:
- This will only affect (77,000) contributors who registered before
May 2010 and who have not accepted the new terms as part of the
voluntary re-licensing program.
- Once a contributor has Accepted/Declined the new terms, they may
continue editting normally. Even if they decline, they may continue
editting normally until and if Phase 4 kicks in.
