I'm unclear about some issues concerning copyright. I'd like to put up a couple of scenarios and get opinions.
Let's say that many roads in a town are mapped but unnamed in OSM. And street signs are missing. I go to the local tourist information place and start asking for names. They give me a photocopy of a street directory which shows all the names. But this photocopy has a copyright notice. Can I enter names from that page into OSM for the already-mapped ways? Second scenario. I have the guidebook for a route. This guidebook is essential for following the route because of a lack of signage on the route itself. The guidebook gives turn-by-turn instructions. The roads/paths are already mapped on OSM. Can I gather them together into an OSM route relation using the information from the guidebook?
