If so, that's just silly. This term here: " (but excluding the Map Data, which are governed solely under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 2.0 License<http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/>)" seems to do exactly what it ought to: it says that everything on the site is CloudMade's except for the map, which is OSM, and is distributed under the OSM terms. It seems exactly as it should, to me. Steve
