As you said, *A provided B*. If not B then I have no say what license the data is released under. I want to at least know exactly what terms my contributions are published as. Something I know when I contribute to wikipedia, linux kernel or apache. Something I don't know when I contribute to navteq maps, google maps, facebook, myspace etc. I'm annoyed people in osm want to go the way of these services I couldn't force myself to join. I have also been doing some petitioning to local administration, organisations, companies and people in my area to put information that they have in OSM (think nature reserve boudaries, which you can't see on the ground) as well as using other people's data with their permission, in OSM. I will feel really bad asking somebody to sign the current CT, I don't think I will dare.
