We are changing the license. Please help with asking users to accept the ODbL and remapping to make sure that their hard work doesn't get lost. |
What this means to you (and this isn't legal advice) is basically you can do what you like with the data, so long as you mention the original creator and the licence and anyone else can do the same with anything you produce based on it.
