Are you responding to the part of NE2's email you quoted, or are you only looking at the sender? Try reading what people say before looking at who says it. If LWG is an authority to you and you're the type of person with a great sense of authority then there's no chance of you ever even considering an argument of someone who doesn't think the license change is a step forward, is there? I assume the issue you have with NE2's older message is the classification of the planned action as vandalism. But really it is strictly a logical consequence of not blindly assuming that the license change process (in which the change from CC-By-SA to ODbL is the smallest part) is good for the project. If you think it's not vandalism then why not and why would you not explain it in the relevant thread? Or maybe it's the assumption that if map data is severed in an organised way then it doesn't count as vandalism any more? I'm really only trying to understand what your line of argument is because all you said above is "Nathan, you're obviously wrong".
