Hi,
    Openstreetmap project is about to change their license from
CC-BY-SA to ODbL:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Open_Database_License

The Openstreetmap foundation has opened a discussion about the
license. It will end on March, 20th. It intends to publish the
definitive license on March, 28th.

Therefore I'd like to know if this license would permit to include
Openstreetmap contents (e.g. maps) in the Fedora Project or if it has
some problems.

I think that it would be very useful if problems could arise now that
the license is not yet released or used.

Bye,

Andrea.
