And the ODbL allows produced works that include BY-SA/BY data. OSM could 
use this fact itself to keep producing BY-SA maps including 
institutional datasets that haven't yet been relicenced.

Over time, either institutions will relicence or they'll stick with 
unsuitable licences. In either case, people can still use their data 
with an ODbL OSM.
