 Hi,

 We are seeing suspected copyrighted data added in the Philippines.

 In OSM: 
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=15.35855lon=120.53538zoom=16layers=B000FTF
 See the discussion here:
 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.openstreetmap.region.ph/469

 We have sent a message to the mapper but got no reply so far.  The
 usual approach we do is talk to the respective mapper and request to
 remove any contributions that maybe copyrighted (unless there is
 explict permission from the copyright holder).  We are not entirely
 sure whether it came from Google map/earth or what since there isn't
 any GPS trace to verify.
