That's a very dim view of things imho, what about giving credit simply to acknowledge the work of others, rather than ripping off the efforts of others and claiming it as your own. While the license might spell it out in legal terms, this is common courtesy, plain and simple in my view, and if people were generally nicer to each other we wouldn't have the need for licenses and lawyers and so on in the first place! _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
