Er, "Tiles" and "WMS" are not typically synonmous -- and I don't believe the Open Space data is available as a WMS. In any case, convenience functionality for loading Open Space tiles makes about the same amount of sense as a layer for accessing OpenStreetMap data -- and the latter is included in 2.8. > The OpenSpace api is based on OL (as is the French IGN's api), and released > under a BSD licence, so you can change it if you want. Can you give a link to this for the OSOS code? I looked and did not find it. Perhaps this is a recent change. > There's nothing in the > OpenSpace T&C that says you have to use their api to access the OpenSpace > services. Can you provide some evidence of that? Using the tiles for a Google Earth application recently received a take down notice from them, no?
