One of the issues with this discussion is that we are using one word
to describe many different things, that we tend to view as one from
a usage pov. IMHO it would be difficult to see how partial
matching/auto-completion of addresses would not simply be generating
a substantial extract and hence a derivative database if actually
stored. <br>
<br>
On the other hand I could probably make a case that if addresses
that already contain sufficient information to query a database
successfully are associated with a single approximate
coordinate-tupel (and not with an OSM object as Nominatim can do)
that the result could amount to a "produced work". But that is just
IMHO.<br>

Hi there,<br>
<br>
I would like to have clarification on this subject as well (but be
aware that I'm just in the process of understanding the OSM
license -> see the other thread).<br>
<br>
What I do not understand with the OSM license is the following
(constructed) example:<br>
<br>
* I have a separate geo coder application based on OSM data<br>
* I have my own user database which is public to every individual<br>
<br>
Now what happens when I use the geocoder to let users do
autocompleting its addresses in my "somehow public" database? I
have lots of users so this "manual" copying from OSM would be <b>substantial</b>
but at the same time it is clear that I cannot make the database
itself public. Or is the resulting database still separate as
there are clean "OSM columns"?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Peter.<br>
