When I zoom into these places, I get "Imagery (c) 2008 Google". Not
(c) FlyByAerialCo, or (c) ViablyUnnecessaryTechnoToys, or any of that.
Just (c) Google. Looks like they bought it.
So there's no reason they can't give us derivation rights -

I wouldn't be surprised if that was why they did it. Maybe they want to

I have just released version 0.1.3 of the Ruby OSM library. The most
important change is that the XML parsing code has been restructured to
support multiple parsers. Many people had problems with the Libxml
C-based parser. So the new code uses the Ruby standard REXML parser by
default. The Libxml o
Hi,
is there a offical XML-Schema for the OSM-Protocol V0.5?
It's not very difficult to translate this but if somebody has done it already..
Abd I have a question regarding this line in the DTD:
why tag*,nd,tag*,nd,(tag|nd)* ?
I think this means: zero to unlimited tag-elements, exaclty one

No, because this would
1. allow ways with one node which we don't want
2. require tags to be specified BEFORE the nodes which isn't a
requirement

Hi,
in Gemany we have been using the slogan "Wir spielen mit offenen
Karten" for OSM. "Mit offenen Karten spielen" is a figure of speech
that literally means "playing with open cards", meaning playing
cards, i.e. "having nothing to hide". The German word for maps is the
same as for car

I bet they trialled this tech when making their maps in India about a year ago:

I called the city of Portland today to inquire about using the maps on
partlandmaps.com as a visual reference for mapping, since the data is
public. In the course of my investigation I got the impression that raw GIS
data of the Portland Metropolitan area might be available from Metro (

Hi all,
First of all, I want to say that WMS sucks. The 100-page spec sucks, the
efficiency sucks.
That said, I just committed to SVN a set of hacks I've come to call "OSM WMS".
Why? Long story short, this will allow me to promote OSM to GIS people. Or, as
FakeSteveC would say, Arctards.
