</span>In addition to those, there's also the possibility of an explicit<br>
permission for OSM, as I mentioned in my first mail. I hope someone with<br>
more legal knowledge than myself can properly answer Vincent's question<br>
about the wording of that permission.<br>

</span>There's nothing special about Vincent's proposed import from this legal<br>
point of view. In my opinion, we should indeed refrain from importing<br>
data under such licenses as a general rule.<br>
<br>
That such imports have been performed in the past is true. At least in<br>
my case, however, the reason why I didn't raise similar objections back<br>
then is simply that I didn't pay close enough attention.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div><div>As I understand it so far, there has always been a certain laxity in the previous imports, but we should now be more rigorous.
