Very useful. I note that currently only 256 of the first 10,000 users are
signed up only 1.5% for the first 100,000. It would be great to see what
work the other people did and of we have the important ones. I realise that
we are still in the voluntary phase but the numbers do seem pretty low.

Fyi I am one of the first 10,000 who has not signed up while I wait for a
resolution of the OS OpenData query.

Has the process of deciding if enough people have signed up been agreed yet.
At the SOTM I suggested that we should use the same 'referendum' of active
contributors process to approve the change to ODbL as would then be used
later for any subsequently changing the license.


Regards,


Peter
