[OSM-legal-talk] osm-carto license

I'm wondering about the license of the "main official map style" and the tiles it creates and whether current license indications make sense.

In the style sheet the license is indicated as CC0: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/blob/master/LICENSE.txt

But on the website it says that the "cartography" is licensed ccbysa:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright

"The cartography in our map tiles, and our documentation, are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 license (CC BY-SA)."

is this from oversight or on purpose?

Cheers,
Martin
