[OSM-legal-talk] Data Portal License CC0 1.0 and OpenStreetMap

[Pierre Béland]

Government of Quebec has added the licence CC0 1.0 to his https://www.donneesquebec.ca Data portal  for import of datasets and never returned requests to add specific authorisation for OSM. 

Looking at the history of discussions, it is not clear for me if the CC0 Public license is compatible with OSM. 

Then my question : Does  CC0 1.0 license make the data compatible with OpenStreeMap Odbl llicense ?  

If so, we will have access to datasets of high quality such as route, hydrography, address.

Deepl translation -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In order to promote collaboration, exchange and sharing, as well as the use of open data by all, the Government of Quebec and several municipalities have adopted a common licence, Creative Commons 4.0 (CC), which comes in six variants.

This licence is recognized as one of the least restrictive in terms of the rights to use open data, while protecting copyright.

The universal Creative Commons 1.0 licence (CC0 1.0) can also be used, in particular to encourage the integration of data into a larger set of open and linked data, in which the origin of each piece of data can sometimes be more complex to recognise. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
