I download the OSM extract from Geofabrik, Cloudmade or some XAPI server. 2. I generate a PDF map from that extract using an unpublished, closed-source software. The map includes the appropriate OSM attribution text.. 3. I publish the PDF map on sites like http://www.istockphoto.com claiming full copyright and sell it as royalty-free vector graphics. Questions: 1. Is this possible? 2. What are my obligations in terms of ODbL license? What (if anything) do I have to provide, publish etc.? 3. Would there be a difference if it was PNG/SVG instead of PDF? 4. Can the buyer of such a map then password-protect his own resulting work (which includes that map)? Thanks, Igor
