[talk-au] [sharedmapau] Re: Plea to Australian decliners

Thank you, John. I couldn't have expressed it better.

Throughout this whole sorry story, I have only ever received ONE 
communication form OSM. It was a begging letter asking me to reconsider. 
If not for the discussion of the forum, I would not have even known 
about the licence change. AI think that shows how much OSM cares about 
keeping contributors informed about changes.
