If you are worried that your data is threatened then that's because you
are now looking in the wrong place. Fosm has more data than OSM already
and will continue to sync with all OSM updates as well as accepting new
updates directly.
If someone is only worried about data being deleted, then they can
simply take the CC-BY-SA planet dump and run with it.
If someone doesn't want to go that "static" route because he wants to
further participate in the large community updating OSM's data, then
Fosm won't be any help after OSM changes its license.
Unless of course Fosm could somehow manage to persuade many people to
contribute to Fosm instead of OSM; which I assume is the basic message
in this post.
I wonder what would happen if someone involved in running Google Map
Maker were to post a similar message. "Hey, don't like how things go in
OSM? Why not come to Google Map Maker where all license issues are solved!"
Bye
