I'm relatively new here, so perhaps I've missed discussion on this in the past, but is there any reason not to include a Google Maps tile source class option in JMapViewer? I'm developing a separate app using JMapViewer and would like to have a Google Maps layer option. I can put it straight in my app if I need to, but it would seem smarter to put it in JMV so others can benefit, plus it is a more logical place for it.
I am not great at reading legalese, but the Google terms seem to permit this as long as my attribution link goes to the actual location currently in the map panel, using the system's browser and Google maps website: https://developers.google.com/maps/terms - see 10.1.1 (h) (ii) Of course if I create this class in JMapViewer it will not immediately affect JOSM or any other using app in any way, unless those apps actually choose to instantiate the class. But I still don't want to do this without knowing it is cool with the community. _______________________________________________ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
