<p>Just to clarify, the OSMF doesn't just requires the waiver
because it is being difficult.</p>
<p>CC BY has fundamental issues that are widely ignored, the blog
post is simply the diplomatic summary that we hammered out
together with CC (it says so much in the text).</p>

<div>Hey John,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The Legal Eagles of the OSMF Licence Working Group continue
to ask for explicit permission (ie waiver) for CC BY 4.0. The
rationale is at <a

<div><br>
</div>
<div>You can reach them via their contact details at <a
href="https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licensing_Working_Group"
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licensing_Working_Group</a>
for any clarifications, but it appears they have already
assessed the wording in CC BY 4.0.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I know waivers can be difficult to obtain, and government
entities may have internal red tape or few resources available
to supply one to the OSM community. However it's in everyone's
best interest, and once we have a waiver on file for the
agencies' datasets, they are good to use indefinitely.<br>

<div>Hi Guys,</div>

<div>Do we really need a waiver from the data provider?
something like this <a

<div><br>
</div>
<div>My feeling is that as long as we list the data provider
on the contributor list, it should be fine.</div>
