Well... partly:
The main osm rendering now works on ODBL data, so every tile that's 
rendering now is rendered from ODBL data.
Nevertheless the rendered TILES themself stay CC-BY-SA as these are 
produced works, which is allowed under ODBL, but the data is now ODBL.

For the Toolserver Rendering chain Kai said he initialized a fresh 
reimport with ODBL-Data to a new database and wanted to switch around 
now somewhen, so that up to more or less now here ODBL-Data is used too.

But even if you were right and "it still (were) CC-BY-SA for now" we're 
talking about Toolserver being cut of in the next one to two years at 
longest, and somewhen in that timespa WILL be the point where OSM data 
is ODBL only.
