Under the proposed ODbL structure, the Foundation will be contractually bound to the bulk of OpenStreetMap individual contributors to license the data only under a specific license. Initially, this will be ODbL 1.0. The Foundation will have the right to change that license to meet future conditions but only if is "free and open" and only under a mechanism that involves getting the consent of then active contributors. As with CC-BY-SA, copyright to individual contributions remains with the contributor and their consent can be asked directly.
== What do you mean by "Attribution"? ==
We want you to '''attribute''' OpenStreetMap, i.e. you show users and viewers of whatever you do with our data clearly where you got the data from. A lot of contributors have spent and spend a lot of time and effort adding data from virtually every country in the world. We would also like people to know about our project and perhaps use or contribute data themselves.
== How should I attribute you? ==
