I very much agree about OpenAerialMap -- if we can't trust the OpenAerialMap contributors about the licensing why should any person in OSM trust any other OSM contributor rather than start redrawing everything they can from scratch and only trust their own contributions. On a different note, I was told on talk-es that tagzania.com (a wikimapia lookalike) got a confirmation from Google that their use of Google imagery for drawing stuff over it and tagging stuff, is within the limits of the TOS. (don't quote me on this) Cheers _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
