Perhaps some one could sum up the implications for data consumers. It may sound silly but it can take up many months to get formal approval in some government circles.
Could some consideration be given to grandfathering, ie if your existing use of our data is non profit or government and you are not supplying our data to third parties then you are permitted to continue to use the data as if it was CC-by-SA. This would avoid the problem of delays whilst approval is obtained once more.
