Now the map cleaning phase has been completed (according to the message
of the day in JOSM)
Per today 8/9/2012 I still find most of my contributions that were
contributed under
the CC-BY-SA license in the new map, mostly simply cutted & pasted
This time I focused on my contributions in Israel.
Literally all of the unique features I added to the Israel map
have been copied by a so-called Mr_Israel, including
the home of my family, as the only building in a circle of a few
kilometers around
their home. It's impossible that Mr_Israel choose this home by hazard
and made the effort of re-survey himself.
Same for the red walk I actually walked and surveyed myself with a GPS,
it still in an unmodified version in the map, just the author changed.
Same for the numerous fish farms I drew, and apparently are the only one
in Israel according to Mr_Israel called Fish_farming in English.
The rest of the hundreds of fish farms in only marked is only water.
Same for the entire kibbutz Geva , all details I draw are still there,
including voluntary mistakes in introduced. No changes but the name of
the author.
Mr_israel even for the sake of making less efforts copied the Places
name Geva
and left the original source.
On none of the modified data a new source such as BING or GPS survey
is mentioned, so I keep it on shameless copying !!!!!
If this is how the OSM community respects copyrights, then I have
to fear for the rest of the map.
I declare the new map still to be CC-BY-SA and not ODBL
