From the FAQ:
Data contributed to ODbL licensed datasets will be contributed under both
the ODbL and CDLA permissive v2. Contributions to CDLA permissive v2 datasets will be contributed under the CDLA permissive v2.
I don't know these licenses. Are they open enough such this project's data can be used by OSM? Evan Leibovitch, Toronto Canada @evanleibovitch / @el56 On Thu, Dec 15, 2022 at 12:15 PM Kevin Cozens via talk <talk@gtalug.org> wrote:

The founding members of the organization probably couldn't think of how they could monetize OSM so they needed to create their own system. You can get a good idea that it is probably about having another revenue stream when you read about how much money they want so you can contribute or be on the committee. It is fairly safe to say there will be another "standard" generated for the map data that will not be directly compatible with any existing map system.
