If the context is actually using data from whosonfirst, I don't believe<br>
that this is actually a sensible question. Any data source used by wof<br>
that actually has a licence that is suitable for use in OSM could be<br>
used directly without the added complication of the linux foundations<br>
licence. Historically wof has suffered from similar issues as<br>
"Open"Addresses, I believe however that they put a significant effort<br>
into cleaning things up a bit before the demise of Mapzen, but I<br>
wouldn't be surprised if they still had CC BY sources, which as we all<br>
know are not suitable for use in OSM .<br>
<br>
Outside of that, no, the LWG has not made a determination if at all or<br>
with what caveats CDLA licensed data could be included in OSM.<br>

PS: long diatribe on why on earth the linux foundation is supporting an<br>
OSM competitor not included.<br>
