Perhaps this will provide the impetus they need to become even half- way usefully complete :) > "Just the grid reference of a [single] point" is not substantial nor > original enough to qualify for copyright or database right protection. Not according to the OS, one point is enough: "Simply put, Ordnance Survey derived data is any data created using Ordnance Survey base data. For example, if you capture a polygon or a point or any other feature using any Ordnance Survey data, either in its data form or as a background context to the polygon/point/other feature capture, this would constitute derived data." Whether they'd bother persuing you for just a few points is a different matter, but certainly OS think it's against Crown Copyright to publish just one point derived from OS mapping. It's about time this whole thing was sorted out properly.
