=The OpenStreetMap License=
 
The OpenStreetMap project is proposing to move to a new license, known as the '''Open Database License (ODbL)''' which would replace the existing CCBYSA license due to [[Open Data License FAQ|problems]] with the CCBYSA license when applied to data. The license is intended to clarify the terms under which people make contributions to the project and the terms under which people can use the data. It is a basically a share alike license for data.
 
The Foundation supports the adoption of this license and has reviewed it with their lawyers and it is now being discussed by the community. The proposed license has been developed by [http://www.opendatacommons.org/ OpenDataCommons] a project of the [http://www.okfn.org/ Open Knowledge Foundation].
