>If data is "tainted" in a way that makes in incompatible with the currently
used license then it will have to be removed in order not to put the project
at risk (e.g. data copied from proprietary sources). This is independent of
the license change.

I assume that the currently used license means to the ODBL license now in
use by contributors.  If  so how and to whom do I serve notice that even
though I clicked on the accept button I'm not comfortable that all my edits
before March 2011 contain only data is that is completely untainted so
rather than put the OSM project at risk could they be removed.  I'm happy to
get out my GPS and notepad and ensure anything I add from today forward will
meet the new criteria.

Many thanks
