I think you could find your answer on the wiki : <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Yahoo#Legalities> Here, in France, one of the admin office that handle "cadastre" give OSM-Fr the right to use they map layer the same way and it's legal and got an explicit permission too : <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Cadastre_Français/Condit ions_d%27utilisation> (sorry, only in french) -- Pierre-Alain Dorange _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
