Steve, how do we avoid the situation where e.g. someone who disagrees 
the new license has run a bot over all of Cambridge to tweak things (as 
has indeed happened to many of the ways) or who has 'tidied up' bits of 
my mapping so all my surveying is now labelled with their name. Does all 
of my mapping of Cambridge get deleted because someone has later 
modified my work in a trivial way? (Conversely, can I just select a big 
area, and add a new tag to transfer the data to my name and cause 
someone who doesn't agree the new license to be retained?)
