[OSM-talk] Mixing OSM and FOSM data

Hi,

Have sent this both here and to the fosm mailing list.

Anyway, to summarise I don't care about the licence and am fully intending to continue contributing to OSM after the licence change.

However I am concerned about severe loss of footpath data in my area and consequently I'm looking to contribute both to OSM and to fosm. I could remap some of the data to be lost (Andy Street's in particular) and probably will from time to time, but not *every* weekend.

First question: could I contribute a set of new ways to both projects without invalidating the licence? e.g. do a GPS survey, add the paths to OSM, and then, add the same paths to fosm.

Secondly, I run my own copy of the OSM database on my Freemap server. Could I, if necessary, mix-and-match OSM and fosm data as necessary in Freemap's database?

Thanks,
Nick
