No, not in this case. The proposal is a subset of the powers currently 
available to OSMF, not a superset. It is the existing CT _minus_ the 
option of future relicensing (with a clarification on asserting rights 
in any derivative database combined entirely of contributions by PD users).

Therefore OSMF need not treat the two groups separately as long as it 
does not exert the future licence change option for the 30,000 'CT 1.0' 
signups.

cheers
Richard
