Umm, doesn't that mean that the 1940 vintage street directory that originally started this thread is still under copyright? (unless of course, it was published at least one year (given that it's 2009 now) after the death of the last surviving contributing author/cartographer/editor/guy who designed the cover/...) (or unless a street directory is not classed as a map - but that would seem rather odd, although stranger things have happened) _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
