page 6 of 8, second paragraph
"The O.S.M. map data is free now -
but using it comes with a catch. Any
improvement, or any change at all,
that a developer makes to O.S.M.'s
map must be sent back to O.S.M."
Is this an accurate description of OSM's licensing?
The rest of the article is rather disparaging of OSM, implying
that OSM is cheap, lacks detail and has a hidden agenda.
