[OSM-talk-be] TEC & Open Data: let's start !

I posted on the imports list. This is the first answer I got:

Can we ask TEC directly to give Openstreetmap explicit permission to reuse
the data and redistribute as ODbL? Or whether they'd consider releasing the

Do we have a contact with them who can make such decisions?
