Re: [OSM-legal-talk] License Working Group 2013
Would this be an appropriate forum to discuss whether or own slippy map requires our own copyright mark? The response to this question in a separate thread on this list has been vague and non-definitive.

You can contact me at my email address if you want more details or you can join us for one meeting to see if you like it. If you cannot or do not want to join us long term but have a particular issue that is important to you and it is in the best interests of OSM, we can make it a project and you can join us for one meeting or a few weeks. In the UK, example projects might be freeing up postcodes or public right of way route definitions. Do you have important issues in your country? Are you an organisation that is finding OSM data difficult to use for legal reasons?

Re: [OSM-legal-talk] (c) statement on openstreetmap.org slippy map?
from http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright: For a browsable electronic map, the credit should appear in the corner of the map. For example: On Thu, Jan 17, 2013 at 12:55 AM, Tobias Knerr o...@tobias-knerr.de wrote: On 17.01.2013 08:56, Jeff Meyer wrote: If we require others to put (c) OpenStreetMap contributors on their tiles [...] We don't. Like ourselves, they can also put it elsewhere, as long as it's findable. For example behind a link labelled Copyright and License, or an about box in an app. At least that was my impression from previous discussions on that topic and that's how I do it on my own maps. It's also the only practical solution when you have more than one source and limited screen space. That there is no copyright information on the mobile version of osm.org *at all* is undesirable, though - I used to consider this a bug.

Where is it? I didn't see any copyright on osm.org.

osm.org is a bit of a unique case because all the content on the site is
openstreetmap data and the copyright information is content in its own
right.

Hi legal types -
** **
Should we be marking our own map at openstreetmap.org with the same
markings we ask others to use?
** **
My impression is that you're supposed to mark a copyright in any use of
the copyrighted material - is that incorrect?

This is the practice Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, and MapQuest use for their
maps.

Re: [OSM-legal-talk] (c) statement on openstreetmap.org slippy map?
Paul - Are you talking about the link to Copyright and License under Help in the left-nav or the statement The data is free to downloadhttp://planet.openstreetmap.org/ and use http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Using_OpenStreetMap under its open license http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright, which is also in the left-nav? I would contend that neither of those are a copyright mark. If we require others to put (c) OpenStreetMap contributors on their tiles, I believe we are obligated to do the same in order to demonstrate that we are taking appropriate steps to protect our copyrights. - Jeff On Wed, Jan 16, 2013 at 9:29 PM, Martin Holmgren d95ma...@gmail.com wrote: Hi! Maybe you are talking about different versions of the site? I just checked with my phone, and on the mobile version I can't find any copyright information, as the left menu column displayed in the desktop version is hidden on the mobile site.
