Actually I fail to see any war going on, because Google can easily take our data, attribute accordingly and use them (with ODbL it will be even easier). For some unknown for me reason they still insist to use their own "soup" of data :)
So Microsoft gave us Bing permission, and for that I say thank you. That's rare one from their list of their open source/open data efforts (I won't count forced by court releasing api docs for SMB/MAPI in good deeds, but still it was nice step from them to not to prolong that stupid case). 2012. gada 4. aprīlis 05:24 Russ Nelson <nel...@crynwr.com> rakstīja: > Pieren writes: > > Where is the truth here ?
