Hi all,
On Friday afternoon I made a request via Google's Data Liberation Front
moderator page that they should sort out the legalities for their aerial
imagery. This could let people use tracings from Google imagery

Hackerspaces (http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/Hackerspaces) are

their projects. Most important cities have one. Unfortunately, despite
being big on openness, and freedom, the hackerspaces website uses Google
maps (eg: http:

You can use all the Java options available for other phones, which has
options for both saving tracks and viewing maps,
Friend is thinking of getting Nokia N97
Can it save GPS tracks for OSM uploading?
Can you use OSM maps on it in any way?
