I'll dig around a little... personally, I'm wary of using the Terraserver imagery unless there has been a specific license granted to OSM to use it. Even though they are technically just "hosting" public domain data, the nature of public domain is that they can claim copyright over it within the context of their hosting service (just as people can print it in a book and claim copyright on the book).
When I first started using it, I found somewhere on their site a clear statement that it was public domain and free to use. Not that I wouldn't mind getting it direct from USGS, since availability and performance has been spotty, but I couldn't find it anywhere else.
