Well my point is that using OSM should be a no-brainer and the complexity added
to the license by share alike means that it isn't for a lot of potential users.
I would prefer my contributions to be used as widely as possible.
It really doesn't matter [to me] if a few people rip off the project if the
result is OSM becomes ubiquitous. I don't suppose Linus Torvalds cares that a
few Chinese companies rip off Linux when the open license means it is
everywhere.
Anyway, this is a rather pointless discussion as I can't imagine any changes to
the license while the previous license change is still in peoples' memories ;]
