I am pretty sure that we also have data which are derived or even directly imported from Google Maps and other non-free datasets inside OSM even we shouldn't. We have removed such data in the past and we will need to do the same in the future. What is important is that misuse will be corrected when discovered. I do not like very much the Hall of shame list about misuse of OSM data without having another list about our own faults. Google removed the data very fast and apologized just like we did with the Latvian case. Or at least we removed the data, not sure if we apologized. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
