Looking at the imports catalogue ( http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue ), there seem to be a number of imports that have an explicit licensing of "CC-BY-SA or ODbL" and thus sound like they fall into that category (e.g. plan.at or "Afghanistan Roads"). So they would be compatible with the OSM license, but not the CT. In addition, it is imho not clear that not some of the many imports listed as "Attribution" licensed wouldn't fall into this category, too (rather than in category 3 as CC-BY). I thought that the new CTs were supposed to "fix" this issue by only requiring people to give the "full" rights they them selves own and then vouch for that the data is also compatible with the current licensing. But it sounds like that clause was dropped again in CTs 1.2.4? (At least that is how I understood the recent discussion on legal-talk). So we are back to nothing is compatible with the CTs other than a PD (like) license? -- View this message in context: http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/OpenStreetMap-License-Change-Phase-3-begins-Sunday-tp6272616p6276776.html Sent from the General Discussion mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
