I don't find John/Frederik/Anthony/etc. to be in the slightest bit
poisonous. If you are not interested in what they have to say then don't
read their postings.

It is the lack of finality with the license change that is the problem.
Random people have posted that everything is decided and the horse has
bolted as far as changes go. If that is the case the lets have that
confirmed and clarify once and for all whether data sources such as the
OS/Nearmap/etc. are compatible with the new license and terms. Then we can
all decide if we stick with osm or not.
