I think most problems currently with the CT is because there is too
many conflicting goals.

If OSM/OSM-F's future really is with PD then fine say so, if it should
stay BY-SA then fine say so, but this wishy washiness of trying to
appease PD and SA groups isn't going anywhere. OSM-F needs clear goals
with respect to future licensing, otherwise everyone is going to be
unhappy and this will never be sorted.
