<div>I think it's cool they use OSM, even if only as a
background picture. The copyright mention is available. All
they need to do, is to cache the tiles in order to not
overload the OSM servers.<br>

It's a weird way to me to create a map like that but they are indeed
only using the tiles, but they aren't caching them, quick look in
firebug: tiles come directly from:<br>

<br>
And so on. Of course it is great they tend to prefer OSM originated
maps. Afaik, the requirement to use tiles directly from the
openstreetmap servers means you either don't put a big burden on it,
and if you know you will , they ask you to contact their
administrators to talk about it.<br>
