When you say listed, does it show an OSM map? Or just name the project?

It shows the picture(map) and talks about the project in the description, in the context of new-aged mapping. (a paradigm shift) The book is at the library here, maybe it can be found at a local book store in london? Sam On 3/27/09, Nick Black wrote: > When you say listed, does it show an OSM map?

No, not AFAIK: the image itself is a derivative work (which would be subject to the CC license), but the overall book is not. I had the same question when including OSM data in my PhD dissertation...
