Fyi, here is a copy of a post made to legal-talk this morning which I<br>
believe belongs more appropriately on this list. (it is an informal poll<br>
relating to the PD/SA debate from Joseph).<br>
<br>
For the record my comments are:<br>
<br>
1) Can you introduce the poll more clearly in the eail. I initially thought<br>
it was spam and was taking me to some dodgy site, so do mention OSM in your<br>
text and the reason of the poll.<br>
2) The wording needs work to avoid it appearing to be partisan.</blockquote><div><br>*That* will be difficult. I thought it's more accurate to say "Try to ensure that users of the data contribute back any improvements they make". People continue to find loopholes in the tax code even though it has been amended 16,000 times. Yet our license must last for more than a decade...<br>
<br>"According to the poll, 40% of the community likes PD and 56% like SA.<br>
I expect most people won't have read up on the issues involved - such<br>
is to be expected of true democracies."<br><br></div></div>Are you sure it's not rigged ?<br><br>
