The message was via email outside the weekly minutes. But it was badly
recorded in the minutes of the 07/09/2010 with an action item on Mike,
who wasn't present at that meeting.
"- Mike- take up Ordnance Survey OpenData license compatibility with
OpenDataCommons. (done) Legal wording needed before announce.
(pending)"

Please quote me with full context:
"The legal advice is that OS OpenData _is_ compatible.
But the Licensing Working Group (LWG) is making further clarification
revisions on the Contributor Terms and these will need to be checked."

 Grant
