I'm confused.
If a maintainer of a database wishes to change their licence, they're
certain to have justifiable reasons for doing so. If it means OSM can't
use it, so be it. OSM has no jurisdiction.
If it's a licence change by OSM then how can a maintainer of a database
possibly account for a future, unspecified change who's implementation
was out of their control?
Could you expand on what you mean by 'legal text'. Is it a legally
binding contract?
