Comment from Teiron
Hey, I haven't originaly made this changes but I don't agree with opinion that they were Google Maps traced. First of all most of objects reverted were varius forms of landuse which were not that similar to Google's (especialy becouse their are approximate).
All in all they seemed to be made with Geoportal base map avaliable freely (and legaly) to Polish community.

Hi Teiron,
The changeset source for http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/42721909 is "Geoportal 2: Ortofotomapa (zdjęcia lotnicze),googlemaps". I explained the problem on there and said "If you have any questions please email the Data Working Group on data@osmfoundation.org ". We heard nothing back (perhaps because the mapper has not been seen since October), so had to take that changeset source at face value.
Best regards,
Andy Townsend, on behalf of OSM's Data Working Group. -

Would that be possible for me to go through those changes, discern which violates Google's ToS and re-add not copied parts?
Some of those were realy valuable. -
Comment from SomeoneElse
Where we have been able to have the conversation with the author of the changeset we have sometimes been able to do investigation on a sub-changeset level, but in this case I'd be tempted to just remap based on allowable data sources - it'll probably be quicker than going through the previous edits one by one, and also it's next to impossible to prove that a certain change didn't come from Google, unless it actually contradicts what Google has.
