Hmm... That's what I've always assumed would happen, and when I looked at a licensing related page on the wiki the other day, it seemed to be what was implied. Looking back now, I can't seem to find the page that gave me that impression. Robert (Jamie) Munro Ps. Reaching 100,000 users is extremely bad news for the license. I think we should stop taking new users unless they agree to make their contribs licensed under whatever future license the foundation thinks is appropriate. Or you could use wording like licensed to the foundation under a "worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual license for all purposes in all media" - Right now, every new user that contributes is a new problem for the relicensing. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkm/o28ACgkQz+aYVHdncI06bwCcCin8XSC//Cab6MQtH5FxM3z+ r4UAoJvLQRk9ZvLRaIJh7Eg4b2g41M8n =FDI0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-t...@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
