This is a major concern of mine, which is why I won't even bother
asking for local government data at the moment even though it is being
offered.  Some one else can do the asking and explaining about the
"flexible licensing" we seem to be asking for because I don't want the
responsibility of asking for something so open ended.  The data I have
added from a GPS or my own notes is quite different, I don't really
care what license is put on it.
