But a map is (this might have to be looked at for the individual case) not only a work but can constitute a database at the same time. If you are able to reconstruct a database with substantial parts of the original database by re-engineering if from the map, you must admit that the database somehow still was in the map. Otherwise you could simply create a SVG-Map, publish it under PD, recompile the db from the svg and you would have circumvented the license. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
