<p>Hi All! I have made a response to DNRM, regarding the licensing
for locality boarders. Please give a critique before I send!<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><i>Hello [NAME],</i><i><br>
</i><i><br>
</i><i>Thank you for your time and consideration regarding the
approval for OpenStreetMap.</i><i><br>
</i><i><br>
</i><i>As a response to your concern over the licence change, it
isn’t necessary for DNRM data to be re-licenced as a result of
usage in OpenStreetMap. It’s simply about signing a waiver to
clarify minor differences in licences. Approving usage in OSM
shouldn’t tamper with the goals of DNRM since OSM uses a very
similar licence with many of the same philosophical views.</i><i><br>
</i><i><br>
</i><i>The first part that needs approval is whether or not you
think our method of Attribution, is sufficient with the
“reasonable manner” requirement of the CC-BY 4.0. We credit
sources through the following page:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors</a>, It’s also
possible to add sources to the objects which are DNRM’s data.</i><i><br>
</i><i><br>
</i><i>The second is to waive Section 2(a)(5)(B) of the CC</i><i><br>
</i><i>BY 4.0 license as to OpenStreetMap and its users with the
understanding that</i><i><br>
</i><i>the Open Database License 1.0 requires open access or
parallel distribution of</i><i><br>
</i><i>OpenStreetMap data.</i><i><br>
</i><i><br>
</i><i>Many organisations such as Brisbane City Council and New
South Wales Land and Property Information, have already given
permission in the same way that DNRM could.</i><i><br>
</i><i><br>
</i><i>I hope you take the time to reconsider. I’ve attached the
PDF that is needed for your review, keep in touch.</i><i><br>
