I think that is a collective DB, see my other post on the subject.  
There is still the question about whether the process of rearranging  
the OSM db is a 'derivative DB' or not. Again see my last post for  
suggestions.

Can I suggest that when we reach consensus on an issue (this one or  
any other) that firstly look to the OSM Foundation licencing group to  
give their official opinion based on their private working group  
discussion, and then (with or without this input) we agree a response  
to the consultation by OpenDataCommons.
