I'm not assuming that Simon was necessarily directing that at us, but I think it's worth saying here that NearMap are specifically *not,* in any way, trying to dictate or attempt to control the OSM process. This is a community effort, and it is not our place to be seen to be influencing it. We're just keen to make it clear that the *Share-Alike* part of the licence is key to us allowing our PhotoMaps to be used as the source of OSM data. That's not an arbitrary choice we make; it's important to the way we operate our business (our aims and our business model are publically available).
