There's also this SystemeD blog guy here with a spot-on 2.5 year old
write-up:

Which ends in "The long-term solution, then, must to be to create a
dedicated LGPL-like geodata licence that addresses the problems above,
setting out what you can and can't do in terms that are unambiguously
relevant to geodata and mapping."
If things don't go too bad then the ODbL might just achieve this.
Bye
Frederik
