[Talk-GB] NaPTAN and ODbL

[Thomas Wood]

My first post to an OSM list in a long time...
I ok'd the NaPTAN account when the licence change option first arrived, 
as it had been confirmed compatible previously on the mailing lists.

Regarding my involvement with it all - I'm going to seriously try and 
resurrect my efforts into this project over this summer, I'm feeling 
quite guilty for abandoning it on entry to university!

Regards,
Thomas
