[talk-au] Fwd: [OSM-dev] To OSM editor authors ...

[Michael Hampson]

So is Phase 4 the end for those that don't agree? What happens to the 
data if we don't agree? and the data built on top of that data?

I have read what I could about the new Contributor Terms and I get the 
drift about the CC-BY-SA and ODbL. Just not sure about the OSMF bit.
