Im not happy to see there the organisation "Open Street Map" in the "licence".
I know a foundation in Germay, wich was once founded to suport some kind of 
action; but now in the   executive committee are some people how did not do 
their job.  The  charter of this foundation was changed: No one could join 
without okay from the executive committee. If this happens to Open Steetmap, 
I want to be albe to took the data and start a new service perhabs called 
"Realy Open Streetmap" :-). My lines for a licence would be:

- The data is freely available for any use.

- If you publish something which was created with help of this data , you must 
publish the  data (which was under this licence before) you used, under this 
licence. You are allowed to take the  publish costs  for this source data.
