For me as a personal contributor, it looks great as is. It goes out
with every extraction(?). You are making attribution "credit
reasonable to the medium" (CC-BY-SA and CC-BY). You are crediting
OpenStreetMap and properly identifying the CC-BY-SA license. You also
have a link to <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright">http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright</a> for second-level
attribution ... we are following exactly such an approach with all
direct extractions from OSM (<font><span

API); you should find the text in Planet and CGIMap already. It will
work with ODbL too.<br>

You are not </span></font></span></font>crediting all 400,000 OSM
registrants "in a manner at least as prominent as such other comparable
authorship credit." [1] but ODbL fixes that. ;-)<br>

<pre wrap="">It is just about a proper way of attributing OSM in a Web Feature Service (WFS).
I posted a question first to this mailing list on May 16th and then to the
members of License Working Group on May 20th and another try on June 1st. Not so
hurry to get an answer, I just wanted to know that the question has arrived and
the working group is aware about it. The service itself is up and configured now
so that the WFS service metadata includes links to OSM license page. I have also
a separate web page describing the service and OSM license in mentioned there as
well with.
Service metadata is always available from
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://188.64.1.61/cgi-bin/tinyows?service=wfs&version=1.1.0&request=getcapabilities">http://188.64.1.61/cgi-bin/tinyows?service=wfs&version=1.1.0&request=getcapabilities</a>
and it contains AccessConstraints section with the following text
Contains Map data from OpenStreetMap contributors

under CC-BY-SA license

The data from the service do not necessarily contain any hint about the origin
of the data or the licenses. In WFS users are supposed to chech such things from
the service metadata. However, WFS services can be used without studying the
metadata throughly. An example of direct data access and the output:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://188.64.1.61/cgi-bin/tinyows?service=wfs&version=1.1.0&request=getfeature&typename=tows:osm_polygon&maxfeatures=1">http://188.64.1.61/cgi-bin/tinyows?service=wfs&version=1.1.0&request=getfeature&typename=tows:osm_polygon&maxfeatures=1</a>
