<a href=http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2011-July/059470.html>I have accepted the contributor terms</a> to avoid being run over by the ODbL tank. I oppose the change because of the damage it will do to the map (see <a href=http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2011-March/057318.html>http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2011-March/057318.html</a>).

           How much damage to the map
           are people willing to accept
                in exchange for
              no benefit at all? -<a href=http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2011-April/057764.html>Russ Nelson</a>

These highways should be motorway but are erroneously marked as trunk or lower: *Alaskan Way Viaduct (SR 99) in Seattle *West Seattle Bridge

All of my edits are released into the public domain.
