Just as a warning: replacing non-compliant nodes does not mean just placing another node adjacent to it. That's copying (or tracing).
This O-trick suggestion invites our members to fraude. Using this O-trick violates the copyright of the previous owner, just as copying from google would violate their terms of service. When replacing (NOT copying) old CC data, you need to provide proof that the new geo data was obtained by NOT copying it from the old CC-BY-CA data, especially in this license case. This can be done for example by adding a source link to a GPS track or a clear link to BING imagery. Just make sure you DO trace from BING then, as referring to non-existant BING data may worsen the copyright status of this data. Note that the fact of copying a set of nodes this way would be easy to prove, as any arbitrary choice of a set of nodes describing a way will never resemble the original set, where randomly offsetting each node of the original will strongly resemble the original way.

HI, does this mean that you can use this technique to lift data off any map, or just the old osm one? I am confused, for me it would be copying the position from somewhere. mike _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
