The maps are Free (Creative Commons BY-SA 2.0). I do not know about the search engine. However, as I explained earlier, even if it is not, it does not restrict my freedom as a simple Trisquel user (it would does as an OpenStreetMap contributor though)! As a consequence, I do not think Trisquel needs to determine whether the included search engines are Free.

OpenStreetMap contributors may have develop their own search engine and do not distribute it (hence no license attached to it). There is no problem with that. Neither for them (they have control over their computing since THEY developed the search engine), nor for mere users (searching OpenStreetMap data is NOT doing their computing).
