+trevorh7000 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 This was posted to the OSM list. Please track these users down - their is a link for the whole list - check if your name is on it? I see besem is on the most wanted list - I am guessing it is the same besem we know from geocaching. I have already sent him a pm but if you are in contact with him ask him to check out his OSM profile (if it is the same besem!) Thanks trev Talk-ZA, It hasn't been discussed here, but as some of you know OpenStreetMap is changing from the CC BY-SA license to the Open Database License (ODbL) starting on Sunday. Contributors who signed up before 12th May 2010 need to agree otherwise the project will be unable to use their contributors and their contributions will be removed from the map next week. Contributors who signed after 12th May 2010 have already agreed while signing up. ;-) South Africa has very good acceptance rates of over 98% for the map data. BUT! We need to track down the last few users and ask them to Agree to the new license by logging-in and clicking agree (or decline if they wish). Please help track down: http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Jan%20de%20Jager - Jan de Jager - Johannesburg http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/EDWARD%20J - Northern Suburbs in Cape Town http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Carel%20Olivier - Port Elizabeth http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Gawie - Small bits all over SA http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/bhonermann - JHB http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/kevnewman - JHB http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/PhilipK (Case Sensitive username) - JHB http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/besem - Pretoria The full list: http://odbl.poole.ch/south_africa_and_lesotho-20120213-20120328-poly.html ** Please check the list if you have multiple accounts ** If the user's email address has changed and they are unable to login/reset password please ask them to email webmaster@openstreetmap.org with details and we'll get it fixed up ASAP. At the moment we'd lose a few areas in north Cape Town and south Johannesburg / Soweto.
