I find this attribution to be completely reasonable. The Legal FAQ is just a FAQ, but the only thing that applies in the CC-BY-SA, which just includes clauses like "reasonable to the medium". Map -> Information -> Copyrights and credits is no different than e.g.: 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenStreetMap 2. File -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cambridge-Openstreetmap-08-06-13.svg 3. Look at "Permission". Having a floating OpenLayers attribution element in the lower right corner is one way to do it, but it's not the only way, and people that don't pick that particular way aren't doing anything wrong as far as I can tell. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
