Let's not be too hasty in removing large amounts of data, imported years ago and subsequently edited by several users in various ways, simply because it may or may not be compatible with a future OSM license. If you guys are 100% sure this import contravened ODbL, or if the City of Ottawa's lawyers contact OSM with concerns, then by all means redact it. But to me, and I admittedly don't know much when it comes to licensing, we should leave this alone for the time being. This isn't something that needs to be re-imported every year. Minor changes to the bus network that occur from time to time can be updated by hand by local users. I see some updates have already taken place since the import was made. As for duplicate bus stops resulting from a node predating the import: I've come across this at least once in the past in a neigbourhood I was editing after a recent visit to Ottawa. I merged the tags and deleted the more recent stop.

Data needs to be compatible with our license, which is the ODbL.[1] Is anyone going to take the responsibility on for removing the data? Copyright incompatible data needs to be redacted, not just deleted. I'd normally be the one doing this, but I'm traveling today. http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/License#Can_third-party_ODbL-licensed_data_be_imported.3F _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
