</div> Have you got a definition of "main map page"? If the cycle map<br>
became more popular than the main site (generally, or in NZ) would<br>
the agreement you're after force its admins to add links? Or on<br>
the other side, if you specify "on <a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org" target="_blank">www.openstreetmap.org</a>" what if<br>
the project renames?<br>
<div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c"></div></div></blockquote><div><br>Actually *every* published map that uses OSM data, including OSM's own maps must satisfy the attribution requirement. That's what the BY clause in the CC-BY-SA means. <br>
<br>Anyone publishing OSM data must provide attribution: "<span id="attribution-container">You must attribute the work in the
manner specified by the author or licensor" is what Creative Commons actually says. The attribution page on the wiki at <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Attribution">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Attribution</a> would seem like a simple and convenient way of achieving this.<br>
