Some address data published in France ARE under odbl. OSM data ARE odbl. So the derivative database is also under ODbL.
There is already a lot of external ODbL data that has been used to improve OSM data, so changing the licence of OSM to "get rid of share-alike" is from my point of view a dream expressed by some people who 1) do not really know the terms of ODbL, 2) do not really know the contributors term which consider changing the licence for a similar one, not one that would change deeply OSM by remove the share-alike or attribution. I'm just afraid we will just loose a lot of time discussing this, and nothing else. -- Christian Quest - OpenStreetMap France
