I think the License Working Group would echo exactly what Jonathan says.
While it does not solve the problem of being able to map where there are
no mappers, may I also seize the opportunity to promote John McKerrell's

Most has already been said on this topic. Just one comment on the,

collected by somebody that doesn't want us to do so?), we would need
