Sorry, I didn't mean to spread misinformation.  Oh well, this was the one big
advantage of ODbL as far as I could see :-(.  So do the produced map tiles (a
Produced Work under the ODbL, I think, or am I mistaken there to?) have to be
distributed under the ODbL also - or can you use any distribution terms as long
as it has attribution - or what?

(I'd rather not *discuss* these legal niceties here on this list but if you 
could
forward the official word on these matters it would help.  It is a pity that 
it's
not completely idiot-proof and obvious from the licence text itself.)
