Hi. I haven't participated in talk-au for quite a while. I'd like to
get back into it though if the legal matters settle down.

I'm trying my best not to feed the trolls, but I honestly would like to know:
1) Are the legal representatives of OSM (OSMF, I guess? Grant?)
accepting this brief offhand remark of "terrificness" as an official
legal statement of permission? Or...
2) Do the legal representatives have a separate official legal
statement of permission that they don't want to share with us?

Maybe I should CC the legal list, I don't know - From what I gather,
Grant is basically their representative, right?

Thanks,
Roy
