I must be missing something here, I thought the whole point of the licence
change was to allow commercial companies to take advantage of the
communities data.
Specifically Microsoft & Bing.
I do not have a problem with this so much, my sticking point was that the
commercial company s did not need to provide attribution, or any sort
of acknowledgement.

Can someone clarify this for me, or provide a link to where it might be
explained. ?
Preferably a senator online style http://senatoronline.org.au/  forum where
no-one is censored and both points of view are explained.
