[OSM-legal-talk] Translations of osm.org

[Jonas Krückel]

Hi,
as hopefully everyone of you noticed we have now translations for osm.org.
This includes of course some license text. We have
a) the link to the license http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/
b) the text that the user must agree when sign up 
http://trac.openstreetmap.org/browser/sites/rails_port/config/locales/en.yml 
(line 691)

On IRC we had the question, if it is ok to point directly to the 
translated link, e.g. 
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/deed.de for the german 
translation.
And the second question is, if it is allowed to translate the agreement 
for the user at the sign up process (a word was "ported" about the 
license, I don't really now what this means here)?

If this is ok everyone should try to check the translation of his 
language if it is legally right.

Best,
Jonas
