Great news ! Thank you very much Spot Image and CNES !
Here is a WMS GetMap request url that can be pasted in JOSM with
wmsplugin (in WMS / rectified image... / Custom background):
http://www.geodatawork.net/__streaminguid.e30dcaa3-5929-4902-9834-12e6f51e1e7b/wms.ashx?request=GetMap&format=jpeg&layers=1896281c-d4a4-4de7-955c-47044ae2d272&;
(and it works better for me if I select WGS84 / EPSG:4326 projection in
JOSM. Look around Nowshera and Attock to see images).
Thanks again.

HOT, all,
Positive news from SPOT that their pre-disaster imagery of the flood
affected area of Pakistan is now available for use in OSM.
The WMS url is
http://www.geodatawork.net/__streaminguid.e30dcaa3-5929-4902-9834-12e6f51e1e7b/wms.ashx?
Before using the imagery, please review the legal agreement at
http://www.youmapps.org/licenses/EULA-OSM-EN.html
Note that SPOT has authorized use in JOSM, Merkaartor, and Viking, but
not Potlatch (I wasn't given a reason).
Hopefully this imagery proves useful in the base map. Please
distribute this information to any interested mappers.
We're still working on other imagery sources, especially post-flooding.
Thanks
Mikel

Hi Nicolas and Mikel,
Here is a WMS to a pre-disaster mosaic of the area :
http://www.geodatawork.net/__streaminguid.e30dcaa3-5929-4902-9834-12e6f51e1e7b/wms.ashx?
It is rather old imagery (2008) but it is SPOTMaps specification,
meaning that the horizontal accuracy is usually better than 7 m.
(fully compatible with GPS)
Here is the license aggreement that users must accept and that
specifically states that the extracted vectors can be integrated in
OSM database. Any other uses are not permitted.
http://www.youmapps.org/licenses/EULA-OSM-EN.html
If you want to use the imagery with a larger group of people, the
server might not be fast enough. Tell me and I will migrate the
imagery to another.
Hope this helps. Tell me is this is usable for HOT.
Jeff.
