And where all the data entered by the PD guys was done without looking
at the non-PD stuff as a reference? Like a "PD" pub which was
positioned at the corner of two CC-BY-SA streets, whose coordinates,
therefore is (arguably) non-PD? Or "PD" rivers that went down the
middle of a CC-BY-SA cycle-map-contours-background-in-potlatch valley?
Good luck with that :-P
