[OSM-legal-talk] License Working Group 2013

[Michael Collinson]

The LWG will hold its first post-license change meeting provisionally 
Tuesday 22nd January at 18:00 GMT/UTC.

I would like to draw your attention to the following:

We'll be discussing our future role and any input on that, preferably to 
this list, is most welcome.  We've started putting together a remit 
document here:

We welcome new members and diverse views. If you are interested in 
opening up geospatial data and imagery for anyone to use, please join 
us.  You can contact me at my email address if you want more details or 
you can join us for one meeting to see if you like it.

If you cannot or do not want to join us long term but have a particular 
issue that is important to you and it is in the best interests of OSM, 
we can make it a project and you can join us for one meeting or a few 
weeks. In the UK, example projects might be freeing up postcodes or 
public right of way route definitions.  Do you have important issues in 
your country? Are you an organisation that is finding OSM data difficult 
to use for legal reasons?

Mike
