This means we have to find a new domain, new servers, and get the<br>
usernames/passwords copied so people can login to the CCBYSA 2.0<br>
fork without new registration.<br>

If you must fork, fork the data (planet.osm), not the user data. I disagree with having my credentials being carried over to a separate project that I would not want to be involved in.<br>

When I signed up for an account with OSM I didn't realize that my account information was going into a database that was also CCBYSA.<br>
<br>
Although I accept that this probably was stated somewhere, I would prefer to not have my login information copied. Let me choose to create an account if I want to.<br>

The only data that will be shared is the User ID and User Name both of which are already public.<br><br>There will be a mechanism (oAuth or similar) which will enable users to transition from the Steve Coast OSM to any OSM fork with about three mouse clicks. At no time will private data ever be shared between any OSM forks.<br>
