Complete agreement from this corner. I've been talking to a friend about 
getting some more legal advice to produce an FAQ before the SOTM panel, and 
to update the wiki. At SOTM we can facilitate some sessions to then discuss 
the various issues, everyone having read the proper legal advice.

IANAL, so I'll stick to mapping and organising :-)
