This took about 8 million messages last time it was discussed: http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2008-April/thread.html#24878 http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/legal-talk/2008-March/thread.html#860 Attribution, as you surmise, was the sticking point, and it's remained stuck. OSM won't agree to overlay "Crown Copyright LINZ" on any map of New Zealand that it displays, but is probably happy to put it on a credits page somewhere. Really, I think, someone needs to talk to them - and if you can get LINZ to agree, then job done. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/NZ-LINZ-data-import-and-attribution-tp21810312p21810588.html Sent from the OpenStreetMap - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
