Actually no - while they have claimed to have done this there is no
imagery actually available under such a license (if there was you would
be able to provide a link to the images - wouldn't you?) - a clear case
of openwashing.
Besides that everyone should know that Planet Labs is a persistent OSM
license violator:
https://www.planet.com/gallery/
https://www.planet.com/explorer/
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Lacking_proper_attribution
so any kind of cooperation between the OSMF and them is - in light of
this context - likely out of the question.
