On a related note, how do we deal with data which OSM does not have a license to distribute? Non-CT data will be a subcase of this, but the broader case also covers data taken from Google or a commercial map provider. Deleting the data with an editor does not remove it from the database. It remains distributed in the full history planets, through the API with /history and in the minutely diffs from when it was initially placed in the database. How do we get data removed from all of these sources? _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
