I would go ahead with that domain name, other people make similar named websites. I don't actually know about the name "OpenStreetMap" but I know the logo is trademarked by the OpenStreetMap Foundation(OSMF). This was done mainly so that people can't use it in a negative way, I fairly sure you're allowed to use it as you're supporting OSM and linking back to them a lot. You could contact the foundation to check things like this. They are a friendly bunch from the OSM community, elected by other members. I suspect at least a couple of the board members know some French too (sorry, I don't!). http://www.osmfoundation.org -- Gregory [email protected] http://www.livingwithdragons.com
