Sorry for misleading title, but I still don't understand how this can be permitted. Is there anybody in OSM community that goes to OSM users that do this sorts of things and warns not to do it? The problem is that somebody starts tracing via "illegal" means (google satellite images and other sources) and other people come after him and add bunch of data (new streets and POI-s, addition street tags) that all their data would probably have to be deleted as they are derived from source that is "tainted", right? If google or any other company comes after him then they would probably have to delete all data that has also been derived from his work, or no? If it comes to that then work of much more people is wasted :( Is there anything that OSM does officially regarding these kind of people of they are just ignored until somebody starts asking questions? -- pratite me na twitteru - www.twitter.com/valentt http://kernelreloaded.blog385.com/ linux, blog, anime, spirituality, windsurf, wireless registered as user #367004 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org.
