It's very confusing now about who, how and what is deleted with the license change. I would appreciate if someone could answer the following questions: - do you delete only data from contributors who explicitly say 'no' to the new licence or also if you have no response ? what is the argument to consider an absence of response to be a 'yes' or 'no' ? - do you delete data from big contributors only or also all small or single contributions ? - if you decide to delete contributions and those contributions are only part of the history of objects, do you rollback to a previous version of these objects ? remove completely the objects if the contributor is the creator or the last modifier ? only if the contributor is the single contributor on the whole history of the object ? - if the objects you delete are part of a relation, do you keep the relation at the end even if all members have to be deleted ? or you also delete the relation in this case ? what happen if another contributor (who accepted the new license) added/changed properties of a relation where all members have to be deleted ? - if someone says 'no' to the new license and wrote a bot, do you also delete the bot contributions ? - after deletion, do you keep the trace in the history of other related objects ? will it be possible for someone else to revert the deletion through Potlatch for instance ?
