I never said anything about the reason being because my old 
contributions were tainted. I do understand the dilemma faced by those, 
but, as far as I know, every change I made can be relicensed (in other 
words, I didn't use NearMap or one of the other sources that OSMF is 
creating incompatibility with). (However, I may have made contributions 
indirectly based on incompatible sources, for example by drawing a way 
parallel to an incompatible way.)

My reason for declining at this time is that it is the only way 
available to 'vote' against the change. I will accept if and only if the 
OSMF starts removing contributions of decliners.
