My understanding of what the board wants is simply that the terms that 
we get to utilize 3rd party data under do not conflict with the 
contributor terms, that is something very different than asking a 3rd 
party source to agree to the contributor terms. Definitely the OSMF is 
free to, negotiate terms that do not specify English law.

PS: note on the side: the ODbL doesn't specify EN law.
