sorry to be pedantic, but when you say "the second paragraph allows edits submitted before the 17th of June 2011 under CC-BY-SA (i.e., by someone who hadn't accepted the new CTs<br>
at the time of submission) ..... to stay in the database", do you mean it is OK for someone who in the past has made edits based on Nearmap imagery, (and who has not yet agreed to the CT's because they had used Nearmap) , to now agree to the CT's without being in breach of Nearmaps T & C's?<br>
<br>
I know this may seem like splitting hairs, but there is a difference between "allowing edits to remain in the database" which is something OSM sysadmins have control over, and "allowing users to agree to the CT's" which is something individual OSM users have control over, and I'm just trying to understand , as someone who has used Nearmap, but not agreed to the CT's, where I stand.<br>
