FWIW I have certainly had confirmation, more than once, that the "someone else" i.e Hampshire County Council agree and they appear to have got confirmation from the OS too. This is an OpenData licence set.
I think some unambiguous consensus on this needs to be made clear by the OSMF or whoever - as everyone seems to say different things which leaves many confused. I will still admit to having no idea as to whether I can use the HCC data or not - and I've been contributing to OSM for 8 years!

Ask the organisation doing the publishing (eg Norfolk CC), or OS? My impression of the Mike Collinson dialogue was that OS basically agreed that *indirect* use of their mapbase in this fashion as the context for someone else's data was OK, but that the "someone else" also had to agree, not that OS had to be asked each and every time. Robert's interpretation is that OS have to be asked every time. Perhaps the wiki text could be made more explicit.

But as far I I know, that would be incorrect. According to Michael Collinson's post at https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2013-July/015028.html "LWG view on use of data in OSM under OS OpenData License: Yes: OS OpenData product except CodePoint No: CodePoint (a Royal Mail response to Chris Hill needs further investigation) You need to formally ask: Any other dataset published under the OS OpenData License by other organisations, such as English Heritage, (or by OS if any)." So unless something has changed since then that I'm not aware of, LWG consider that data licensed under the OS OpenData Licence *cannot* be included in OSM, unless it's either one of the specific OS OpenData products (except CodePoint Open) or you formally ask for permission from the rights holders.
