I found this mentioned on legal, the data that is added to openaddresses is with a different license than osm, http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
I guess that they are dropping the sharealike clause on the data they import, this is questionable. If the data I contribute to osm is sharealike, how can they just drop the clause of that? mike On Tue, Mar 30, 2010 at 9:57 AM, maning sambale <emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com> wrote: > Do all addresses added here are also added in OSM?
