(Note I'm not trying to be disruptive)
Multiple times on these lists people have been advised to "vote with
their data".  Since most contributors were not asked about the
relicense process, then, if they just agree to relicense their data
and then leave the project, OSMF will never know.  The people who
drafted the CT are not very keen on discussing the CT here otherwise,
so this may be the only way to let them know and exercise some
democracy in the project.
