according to this blog entry from 2009 Flickr is using the main API to get tag information of OSM objects. Isn't this a misuse of the API which should be reserved to mapping activity? Not sure about the technical details of osm integration in Flickr and whether they are really using the API and not the XAPI, but if they use the API they should be encouraged to switch to one of the XAPIs or mirror the osm data themselves. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
