The Ramblers association have a campaign to encourage inner london councils to create definitive maps, but I assume the Ramblers association are not really bothered about the copyright issues. http://www.ramblers.org.uk/Campaigns+Policy/maplondon.htm http://www.ramblers.org.uk/Campaigns+Policy/map+london+council+feedback.htm I guess it would be very useful if people used the wiki to let others know how their contact with councils went, especially the requests for the council to apply to OS to release the data using current legislation.
