I thought so too but I realise that you'll never have anything that 
clear. ODbL has other similar issues that are currently up for 
discussion, like the question how we treat no-data-added derivatives and 
what exactly is a derivative database (and what is "just" a bitmap or 
"just" an SVG file...).
