[OSM-talk] Let's prepare to Fork OSM to a CCBYSA 2.0continuation

[John F. Eldredge]

My largest complaint is that, if you click "yes", you not only are agreeing to the current new license, but you are also agreeing in advance to any future license changes, without being able to know what those new license terms will be.  It is the equivalent to voting someone into office as "President for life".

You mean like the vocal minority for CTs/ODBL ?

Most won't care either way, but some people might care less if they
don't feel there is an option, at present the CTs/ODBL seem to be
forced upon us or else we won't be able to keep our edits in the
database or edit in future... who is making the ultimatum exactly?
