The LWG (Licence Working Group) published the plan for the Licence Changing [1]. So, at the 27.03.2012 the DB is changing to Read-Only for deleting/hiding the non-ODbL-Data. And at 01.04.2012 the DB should be online as ODbL-Database.
I hope, in this week till 27.03. there will be some additional people accepting the ODbL...
according this posting[1], the changing starts earliest 1 day later. So the database will be tomorrow still online for edits.

There is now a new schedule available for the Licence-Changing: http://blog.osmfoundation.org/2012/03/27/service-schedule-march-april-2012/
The new schedule:
* *1st April:* Enter Read-only mode. 8am UTC http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20120401T08 * *4th April:* End of downtime. Enter Read-write mode on new server. Our estimate is that this will be in the morning, but could be subject to change. * *5th-6th April:* bbox-based live-data tests of rebuild logic. * *7th April:* Start automated processing of all remaining non-clean objects. * *9th April:* Progress report and estimation of remaining license upgrade time. * *To be Determined:* On completion of the processing, subject to satisfaction with the outcome we can re-declare the dataset to be ODbL. Immediately afterwards, a first new license planet file will be generated/published, and diff creation will resume.
