I don't know why some people call it a vote at all.  It is a question
whether or not *you* agree to a contract (the CT) and allow *your*
contributions to be distributed under ODbL.  Your answer is not binding
to anyone else.

And when OSMF has enough agreements from contributors they might decide
to switch licenses.

A question for a real vote could be "Do you think OSM should switch to
ODbL?"

I am curious what the outcome of that would be.
