> [snip] Not sure how relevant this is but I'd like to offer some "pro" arguments to certain aspects of OpenData. At the moment I'm working on combining the Vector Map District tile set with footpaths from OSM. Phil Endecott's "UK Map App" (mobile app doing a similar sort of thing - but no slippy map tileset) looks pretty impressive. I'm also starting work on an augmented reality Android app for walkers, for which I'm planning to use Land-Form Panorama height data. So - even if OS OpenData is not being used directly within the main OSM database - I would say that it provides valuable additional data for OSM-based projects. Nick
