Hi Paul
Hi refer to the Import list to be more precise.
For the translation, my contact at city of Montreal is telling me that they
are preparing an english translation but this is not yet available.
Below is my own translation of 4.1 and 4.2
Pierre
4.0 Source Indication
4.1 You must include and maintain the following notice on your copies,
modifications, translations and distributions of data:

permission of the City of Montreal.
4.2 If a product contains value-added data, you must include the following
opinion on this product:
This product contains licensed data given "as is" in accordance with the

>It is similar to a Creative Commons license CC-BY. For example, it is

>On the Open Data day,Saturday, February 23, representatives of the city have

>This is a good news for the community of free data, developers and all those
>who believe in a greater participation of citizens. The city of Montreal, by
>amending its license, contributes to develop an eco-system where
>OpenDatacreators OpenSource developpers, governments and citizens collectively

>We should of course assure with the Import Workgroup that this license is
>compatible with OSM.

>We hope that this example will be followed by others, including the Government
