<div>2) fosm will not / cannot attribute those who only work on fosm.</div></div></blockquote><div> </div><div>All content outputs from <a href="http://fosm.org" target="_blank">fosm.org</a> attribute fosm, osm and contributors. Most of the website's html pages do not contain or publish maps or map content, only the api and diff files contain any content and those are attributed like this:<br>
<br><osm version='0.6' generator='FOSM API 0.6' copyright='2011 FOSM contributors, OpenStreetMap contributors' attribution='<a href="http://www.fosm.org/attribution">http://www.fosm.org/attribution</a>' license='Creative commons CC-BY-SA 2.0'><br>
<br>The one exception is currently Potlatch which is embedded and obviously displays map content. I guess ideally Potlatch itself should read the data source headers and display the copyright and attribution notices that are appropriate. Perhaps that would make sense once all OSM data sources provide such information.<br>
