Are you sure about this? Let me give an example:<br>

<br>
Let us assume I have a list of all streets in Germany with their<br>
geometry, from a non-OSM source.<br>
<br>
I want to divide these into two groups: streets that have at least one<br>
pub, and streets that have no pub.<br>
<br>
Using OSM information about the location of pubs, I count the number of<br>
pubs along each street, allowing me to make the desired separation.<br>
<br>
I end up with a database of "streets that have at least one pub". This<br>
database does not include OSM data.<br>
<br>
In my eyes, though, it is still *derived* from OSM data. It is the<br>
result of an algorithmic process that has made use of OSM data; if you<br>
will, the OSM data residue is in the name/description of my new<br>
database: "roads with pubs". It is derived from OSM; it could not have<br>
been made without OSM.<br>
<br>
Do you disagree?<br>
<br>
Bye<br>
