Since that OSMF meeting, the Creative Commons people have clarified their
position (or changed their position, depending on your point of view) and made
clear their commitment to making a new CC-BY-SA 4.0 which will (I hope) address
the concerns with the current CC-BY-SA licence when applied to databases.  That
would be ideal, since then the transition to a new licence wouldn't involve any
painful relicensing exercise or deletion of data.

I would hope that this new state of play has changed the timetable a little bit.
Has the OSMF board discussed the new Creative Commons offer?
