Note that the licence compatibility column as it stands is a bit
misleading now that the table has been split from the main page. There
are a lot of entries that say ODL 1.0 or OGL 2.0 for instance. These
will be the local spin a data licence, and each one will need to be
individually approved by the LWG before the import process can be
started. Examples:

* Grand Prairie - http://www.cityofgp.com/index.aspx?page=2332

* Muskoka -
http://map.muskoka.on.ca/exponare/Open_Data/Open%20Government%20Licence_District%20Municipality%20of%20Muskoka%20GIS_2014.pdf

We don't yet have one licence that rules them all. For instance, the
Edmonton imports (such as
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/28190793) look unapproved and
incompatible.
