No, I posted the question publicly to the legal talk list, my concern wasn't just about Nearmap but any source that may be too easy to access by new contributors that would be unaware that they would be breaching contract with OSM or the source or both. http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/legal-talk/2010-August/004069.html > In addition I feel very strongly that copyright on imagery does not, and > should not, 'transfer' to tracings from that imagery Copyright isn't transferring from imagery to tracings, Nearmap have terms and conditions (contract) to use their imagery, they are happy to donate the use of their imagery and other resources (bandwidth, CPU time etc) if the tracings are made available under certain licenses, if this is unsuitable they also offer commercial licenses. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
