I believe something along this lines could be done. We would need the numeric id in the table, since it really has to be mandatory to check in the current list (http://planet.openstreetmap.org/users_agreed/) if somebody has agreed or not.
Not that we bombard somebody that has already accepted with mail :-).
I would also recommend having a look at the edit history of the mapper in question (make that a link in the table). That makes it easy to determine if she/he has simple missed the relicensing process by being incative for a while (which is the best intro to a mail).
All that said, I do believe that as a first step, simply getting in contact with mappers that you know personally (not necessarilly in person) that haven't signed up, should be done regardless of any additional technical tools.

shall we make a wiki table based on Sara's list in order to keep track of who contacted whom, together with a "Musterbrief" in 3 german, french and italian everybody can use? Maybe it makes sense that members contact nearby mappers to remind them of the license stuff or discuss open questions with them, so as little data as possible gets lost. I think it's worth a try. If someone does not agree to the new license terms that's okay. as long as they don't forget about the ongoing license stuff...

Well I didn't really do anything except keep a tally. Anyway, IMHO, anybody in the top 1000 that hasn't signed up makes sense to contact.
Even more so any of the top 100, the 46 mappers amount to 22% or so (a couple of them already have mail from me).
I just woudn't bother with edwin-ldbg :-)

awesome work, thanks a lot Simon!
Who will contact the remaining 46/100 mappers? and should we somehow contact the rest too? In the end every bit of data that does not get lost helps, so in my opinion it's well worth a try!

Quick update (based on list from Sarah from the 11th, top 100 updated manually by me):
- of the top 10, nine (9) have accepted the CTs, leaving Marc
Mongenet as the sole mapper missing (if somebody knows him, it would be a good idea to contact him)
- of the top 100 there are 46 mappers remaining that need to be
pointed to the relicensing process, the 54 that have relicensed amount to 56.54% of the data
- in total, adding in a couple of mappers in the top 1000 I know
have accepted, we are already over 63% Simon
PS: Sarah if you regenerate your list, could you put tabs between the fields? :-) Thanks.

I switched the numbers around by accident, should be:
- of the top 100 mappers 45 have already accepted the CTs/ODBL,
amounting to 51.1% of the data
- the 55 that haven't agreed yet would give us an additional 25% of
the data (bringing the total to 82%)
getting hold of 55 persons and getting the majority of them to agree is still a trivial exercise.
