mikey: "It may be helpful to clarify whether or not OSRM has access to the facts contained in the data contributed to these projects. Otherwise I believe it may unwittingly lead contributors into believing that they are contributing to a non-commercial publicly available project when in fact they are providing free information being used for OSRM's profit."

Hmm. Not sure where to go with this, as I'm think you may not like the response.

As stated, the question isn't really relevant. As long as all the responses/contributions are publically available on Grokline, then of course OSRM has access and is permitted to use the information.

They may be restrained from using or quoting the actual posts by copyright and the CCL conditions, at least beyond fair use, but OSRM is undoubtedly more interested in the information related in those posts rather than the manner of expression.

I think the more important question, and what you may be driving at, is whether the facts and data posted at Grokline can or will be privately maintained and used by OSRM before or without being made publically available on Grokline.
