Oh , if only it were that simple.
Partly as I said in my earlier email, the CT's talk about data you have
added, not data which still exists.
But more importantly your contributions would still remain in all the
planet
dumps, so I presume you'd be relying on the "database people" to remove
the
data from them as well. Probably a time consuming task, but potentially
do-able. But then there are all the copies of the planet dumps held on
other peoples computers. Should the "database people" ask for all of
them
to be returned so they can be cleaned?
You see data you add to OSM cant easily be removed.

I still see no problem.
There is essentially no difference post-relicensing between data derived
from an
unrelicensable source and mapping that is not relicensed because people
cannot
be contacted. Planet dumps from the CC-by-SA era are a non-issue because
they
remain wholly under the Creative Commons licence; post-relicensing history
dumps
omit both sets ofdata.
But it is not a question of the wording of the licence, its a question of
the wording of the Contributor Terms. I've not mentioned the licence at all
in the context of this discussion.
The preamble to the CT's state they refer to existing and future
contributions. Therefore they cover contributions exiting in the planet
dumps, therefore you have to be able to say the data in those dumps complies
with the CT's. Nothing to do with what licence the planet dumps are issued
under.
