Michal, LWG guidelines won't solve lack of attribution. I just recorded
this https://youtu.be/2kgPqWe-wJs this is obviously a license violation,
which I have reported via email to Facebook and Mapbox, privately, mailing
lists and even to the board for the last 13 months. Still not fixed. This
is extremely disrespectful towards OSMF coming from a corporate member. But
again, the board decided not to decide anything about my request to
terminate the rights as written on ODbL.
Actions speak louder than words. it's not rocket science to add attribution
and should have been fixed already.
