I will answer this mail. But refering to the condition of tagging source=ideib.cat, really, really, really it's not the case.
The permission they give me is _literally_: "You could use the IMATGES-AERIES service [N.T.: aerial imatges service] as a background for editing other layer. You only have to cite the source" That we have to "cite the source" I interpreted as put source=... put really, it suffices to mention "IDEIB" in the comment of the update data (comment tag I think), in "note" tag, in anything else. But mention the source. Xan. En/na Richard Weait ha escrit: > 2010/3/28 Xan <[email protected]>: > >> I just have to say that I did not "negotiate".
