As Ed mentioned, non CT-compatiable data, e.g. nearmap derived data. Yes they will, so in my opinion OSMF should either ban all existing users who have not accepted the CTs, or lift the requirement for new users to accept the CTs upon sign up (I would personally rather the latter, but I either would resolve the current discrepancy). (Yes I know this is a little hypocritical because I can ban myself by not contributing) _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
