[OSM-legal-talk] ODbL License + Outline Procedure

It's sad to see OSM add to the pile of incompatible "share-alike"
licenses, making it more and more impossible to create free works
derived from more than one already existing free work.

While I have to accept, that you do not want to go with a more PD or
BSD-like license, I would have at least hoped for some explicit
conversion clauses, e.g. allowing to use the data under CC-SA, GFDL or GPL.
