We have a section on CloudMade (p.164) where we say that "one of the 
CloudMade founders is Steve Coast, inventor of OpenStreetMap".

(Es gibt einen Abschnitt ueber CloudMade (S. 164) wo wir schreiben, dass 
zu den CloudMade-Gruendern auch der OSM-Erfinder Steve Coast gehoert.)

Do you think I should ask Creative Commons for a statement, and do you 
have reason to believe they will say "oh sorry, John Wilbanks just talks 
bullshit"? If I remember correctly, Thinh Nguyen has, in his official 
Creative Commons capacity, basically re-iterated what John Wilbanks has 
said.

(Denkst Du, ich sollte Creative Commons danach fragen, und gibt es einen 
Grund, anzunehmen, dass sie dann sagen "oh, sorry, John Wilbanks redet 
Mist"? Wenn ich mich recht erinnere, hat Thing Nguyen als offizieller 
Creative Commons-Vertreter im Grunde genau das gleiche wie John Wilbanks 
gesagt.)

I do not think this issue can be reduced to individual people and their 
opinions.

(Ich glaube nicht, dass man diese Sache auf persoenliche Meinungen 
reduzieren kann.)

Bye
Frederik
