Many thanks for your comments Sam.

Unfortunately, unless we allow the current developers to use the data
without restriction then they will never support an open database. I think
the solution is to host the database on sourceforge with an PDDL license and
then automatically upload the data to OSM. My hope would be that
contributors maintain the open database so that everyone benefits in future.

All the best,

Kevin
