I forget who it was, but someone suggested per country or per region agreements, rather than a one size fits all. I highly doubt any time soon it will be practical for some places to go PD, on the other hand the US was originally based entirely on PD data and it may be much more practical for that data to shift to a PD license, I know this is going to make things much more complex but I only see 2 outcomes, a little more flexibility or forking, both of which will have the same effect essentially. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
