<p dir="ltr">I'm very curious about the cc-by compatibility. The Red Cross is doing a very large mapping project in West Africa, ground truthing a lot of the data created by remote mappers during ebola. As part of the project we want to release the data both in OSM and in a more complete form (not all data gathered is appropriate for osm) on HDX. Our original thinking was to double license the data, Cc-by 4.0 for HDX with an explicit license for OSM. </p>
<p dir="ltr">What is the best route for organizations to do something like this. From this thread I can see the need for a checklist or at the very minimum a wiki page with sample language. Forgive me if this already exist I haven't found anything online yet. </p>

                <div dir="ltr">Tobias, the best option for ensuring the
                  data is usable by OSM is an explicit statement of
                  permission for the OpenStreetMap project to
                  incorporate and use the data under the project's
                  terms. This is generally considered preferable to a
                  dataset that is ODbL-licensed without such a
                  statement.
                  <div><br>
                  </div>
                  <div>However, I would encourage you to consider
                    non-OSM users as well when choosing the license.
                    ODbL is not widely used outside of OSM. A license
                    like CC-BY 4.0 is more widely used and actively
                    maintained. Choosing it would ensure compatibility
                    with a large number of non-OSM datasets. And if
                    paired with a permission statement like what's
                    described above, OSM could still use the data
                    without any license compatibility worries.</div>
                  <div><br>
                  </div>
                  <div>Of course, if you can do without attribution, you
                    might consider something even more simple that
                    disclaims liability but imposes no other terms. If
                    that's an option let me know and I can turn up some
