</div> Right. I actually cannot see how you can set any extra restrictions to<br>
local chapters on things what anyone else can do anyway. If I as LC am not<br>
allowed do something, then I can always do it as a private person, or a<br>
company. So if there is ban on editable servers, then the rule should be in<br>
general terms of use, or not there at all.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>Of course, anyone is allowed to clone the database and make it editable in respect of the license. But he cannot say it's the OpenStreetMap database. I think it is a good point to say somehwere that local chapters can use the name "OpenStreetMap" but cannot claim that "they are" an OpenStreetMap dataset when it is a forked project. Probably the wording can be improved.<br>
