Sorry, I misread your message as a suggestion that users could be coerced to
change to the new license by rendering their data in an ugly way.  That's
not what you said.

Actually, the data doesn't really disappear, it will always be available in
some old planet file, and I'm sure some renderer would show the old data,
perhaps as a separate layer.  ODbL layer + CC layer = what license?
