[OSM-legal-talk] feedback requested

I belive there are two parts to this

- one the specific action of moving a (untagged) node

- the more general statement, that an OSM object does not per se carry 
any IPR. An analogon if you like, would be a pre-numbered sheet of 
paper. This covers reuse of OSM-objects which have essentially have had 
their contents erased and have been rewritten.

Note that it is open to debate in how far (untagged) way nodes should 
survive removal of their "parent" object.
