Haste???? I wouldn't call the pace this process is going "fast". Let alone we're showing a lot of haste.

The discussion I was having in this thread was related to an import (3DShapes) which was stated by Stefan that it is PD. Hence, there are no legal reasons why not to accept the Contributor Terms. Huge imports that are not under the new CT, like 3DShapes, raises a lot of questions whether these imports are compatible or not. You've seen these discussions on this mailinglist. Let's make it clear: when this import is compatible with the Contributor Terms, set the account accordingly.

Cheers,
Henk

Apparently the opinions on whether the CT should be accepted by import accounts hasn't been settled completely. Yes, it does take a lot of time, but exerting too much pressure does the cause (i.e. convince people to accept the ODbL and CT) more harm than good. It raises more questions, especially when this is done by OSMF representatives.
