Therefore I'm going to listen to them, and let them just get on with it. I really just wan this license change sorted out and completed as there are other more important things to be done.

That probably reflects the problem best.

I do *not* know the people from the License Working Group (as I guess 
most mappers won't do) - therefore I have no reasons to trust them or not.

I do *not* see it as my personal duty to build trust in a license change 
that some people (I do not know) are trying to do.

I can't see (by far) *any* more important thing in OSM than what will 
happen to my data in the future.
