Entering "knowledge gained from other maps" is copying, yes. Of course, one can, and ideally one should, take a liberal view and say that expansionist views of copyright are insane and should be challenged. I'd be right with you on that. But the OSM database is not the place to do it, not unless you promise to indemnify OSM against the resulting lawsuit. cheers Richard who suspects this should really either be on newbies@ or legal-talk@ _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
