After a quick read it seems the intent of the license is the same, the only difference is the legalese. So rather than explaining it in specific license terms, you just give a broad description without getting into specifics.

eg, The license allows you to take the data and do what you like with it as long as you attribute it to openstreetmap.org

or did I miss something or over look something?
