This is really good, and very much in accordance with both the text of the ODbL and the long-standing precedents set by the osm.org/copyright page. Thank you. Two small wording clarifications: "If OpenStreetMap data accounts for a minority (less than 50%) part of the visible map rendering, attribution with other sources on a separate page that is visible after user interaction is acceptable." This probably needs to be qualified to the "currently visible map rendering", and "50%" phrased as "50% of objects" or similar - just to clarify the (quite likely) scenario where a map uses OSM data in (say) Turkey, TomTom everywhere else, and Natural Earth for coastlines/land. "It is permissible to use a mechanism to collapse the attribution as long as it is initially fully visible" This would be better as "It is permissible to provide a user-activated mechanism to...". There are apps which flash up an OSM credit for under a second, after which it disappears (including one terrific iOS mapping app which I would otherwise recommend). cheers Richard -- Sent from: http://gis.19327.n8.nabble.com/General-Discussion-f5171242.html _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
