I think by "you" also also mean myself? I feel part of the community and have
not been asked if i feel CCBYSA is a bad choice, whether i feel Share-Alike is
essential, or if i like the ODBL. I am asked to relicense - Which i wont as it
stands now. This is not a matter of the ODBL per se (although i am in much
favour of PD) but a matter of how YOU treat the me as a part of the community.

Although you might find it funny to live your dictatorship or treat people like
above - This is the big difference between Linux and OSM, you and Linus
Thorvalds. Linus united the community - you are actively trying to split it
with statements like the quoted one.
