The term "single creative work" is not used in the CC license text.</blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Displaying OSM content and other content side-by-side does not form a "work derived from OpenStreetMap" according to community consensus. </blockquote>
<div><br></div></div><div>Sorry if I've neglected to look into this issue in more detail. May I ask, which community consensus are you referring to? OSM or CC? My understanding was the intention behind a share-alike clause is to compel people using the work to release their works under similar licences. If the OSM community doesn't really care about forcing licencing on others, then I actually think we have reached the same conclusion. See my notes in the last paragraph.</div>

The whole has not been "built upon" the part.)</blockquote>
<div><br></div></div><div>I don't think this is the correct analogy to draw. I feel that a result of a search query is more like a single track on a CD. Elements within the result query (or the track) can be divided further, but the whole result/track is a single work. If you include another artist's work inside that track, I assume that would trigger the share-alike clause. </div>
<div><br></div><div>The real thrust of my argument was that if widespread adoption of OSM & attributation is the goal of the community, then OSM should reduce its licencing requirements. Shifting to CC-BY would align more strongly with the comments I've seen in this thread.</div>
