[OSM-legal-talk] Adding OSM-ids to an external database and publish in CC-BY

[Tom Lee]

This seems similar to the problem discussed here:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Open_Data_License/Metadata_Layers_-_Guideline

The doctrine proposed by Richard Fairhurst (and discussed on that page)
strikes me as reasonable. It's hard for me to see how OSM IDs could qualify
as a substantial part of the database when used in isolation, in this
manner. They're algorithmically generated and, by themselves, contain no
information about the world that OSM describes.

In a broader sense, it seems like it would be very counterproductive for an
open project to embrace policies that make it difficult for people to even
*refer* to useful parts of it, which is what a hyperlink amounts to.
