Whilst it would obviously and plainly be wrong for an entity to claim 
copyright on OSM data and put a restrictive licence on it, preventing 
copying for instance, the one situation I feel we must avoid is preventing 
co-operation between varying Free/Open projects due to the minutiae of 
licencing.
