But that would mean that anyone who downloads the content is granted
two licenses, one by the OSMF and one "You".  In effect would the
license the OSMF chooses for the database contents (the DBcL) make any
difference?  Since the user can instead use the worldwide (...)
license do anything resitricted by copyright etc.
