They are placed in my PPA on launchpad at
https://launchpad.net/~kakrueger/+archive/openstreetmap/ There you can
also download the individual packages, e.g.
https://launchpad.net/~kakrueger/+archive/openstreetmap/+files/libapache2-mod-tile_0.4-9%7Enatty1_amd64.deb

Re: [OSM-talk] Displaying videos from around the world on OSM?

2011-10-17 Thread Jonathan Gray
Thanks for all of your help everyone! Lots of useful tips and links:

We're buried in logistics for the event later this week, so I think
we'll defer the Great Open Data Census until the Open Data Day on 3rd
December: http://www.opendataday.org/

So watch this space!

Re: [OSM-legal-talk] Distribution of OSM and non OSM data together

2011-10-17 Thread Carlos Dávila

2011/10/10 Carlos Dávila:

I would like to know if it would be possible with the new license to
distribute maps which combine OSM data and other data licensed under a more
restrictive license (basically non commercial use permitted). AFAIK it is
not possible with the current CC license, is it?

You couldn't do that under the current license, but it may be possible
under ODbL, depending on how the data is combined with OSM data, and
how the maps / map tiles are formed. This previous post I made on this
list (and subsequent replies to it) may help explain some of the
details:
http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/legal-talk/2011-August/006594.html

Understanding this legal discussions is not so easy for me, so I'll 
explain what I want to do and how I think the info in that thread 
applies to it.
Step 1: create a map layer from OSM data using mkgmap. In that process, 
some attributes of the OSM elements are changed, for example, names, 
highway type, etc. Also some elements are filtered and don't appear in 
the final map. I think it would be a "Produced work", right?
Step 2: create a second layer with data from another database, with a 
CC-BY-SA-NC similar license.
Step 3: combine both layers in a file ready to be used by garmin 
devices, in which each layer can be enabled/disabled separately. Also 
the file can be split using appropriate software obtaining files with 
each layer. Would be any problem for this? I should provide attribution 
and details about the method used to obtain the map for the OSM layer.
Step 4: produce a set of files for garmin software (MapSource). In this 
case, layers can't be displayed separately because software lacks this 
capability, but they have been produced independent one from each other. 
It would be a collective work, and it layer could be under its own 
license. If necessary, release the external data (or a link to it) won't 
be a problem, as it is freely available from the data owner's server.

How exactly do you plan to improve this? Scuba dive your way along the 
cables?


Which is really just as important here as whether this data is any good 
or not. The real problem with this data is that we have no way of 
validating it or improving it so importing it would just be another step 
towards turning OSM into a dumping ground for random third party geodata.


There are far better things we can be doing than importing data which we 
have no chance of keeping valid and which is of little use to anybody 
other than the people who created it.
