This saddens me.

I find it hard to conceive that members of OSM were lobbying the 
OS/Government to release data for public use, whilst at the same time 
(by the same people?) creating a new license that's incompatible with it.

Talk about shooting yourself in the foot!

If a way is just traced from OSSV, ie not completely accurate, & not 
attributed; how is it's origin to be judged?
