[OSM-legal-talk] Factual Information License and Produced Works?

The ODbL says that one can release Produced Works under any license.
The Factual Information License says that "You must include a copy of
this Licence with the Work in a location reasonably calculated to make
others aware of it."
Given that OSM data will always have content licensed using the
Factual Information License then how can one create a Produced Work
that doesn't include a copy of the FIL? There seems to be a bit of a
lock-out between the two licenses.
The generally get the impression that the FIL has had less attention
that the ODbL. It still talk about 'neighbouring rights' a phrase that
was removed from ODbL, and there is no 'or later version of this
license' clause.

Peter
