I should have spelt out my thoughts a little more clearly, I was suggesting a lookup table that could be used for the attribution, not just by OSM(F), but by others as well, that could be linked to, eg a wiki page, or shown as overlaid text on map tiles... The reason for this would be to still attribute major contributors properly, without risking the database being corrupted by spammers. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
