<div dir="ltr">Panoramio didn't state any open license for uploaded content, so it was easy for them to go closed with Google.

Or you would have to take another route that would ruin the idea of open community purity, like advertising.</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Oct 23, 2014 at 10:48 AM, Mike Thompson <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:miketho16@gmail.com" target="_blank">miketho16@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Does anyone know if the video plugin for JOSM works under Windows?

I don't see anyone at the moment making another non-profit
solution that gives an instant benefit to OSM (via iD editor).
Storage space and bandwidth are never free while volunteer time
is, wether it is programming or contributing material, so until
then anyone offering a similar service will require income to
pay for it.<br>
<br>
Mapillary is the best answer to your question at this point in
time. That is all I can say.<br>

<div>The business activity of the for-profit company
Mapillary is not new. Before it was acquired by Google,
Panoramio did the same:<br>

I don't see any point in working for free for a private
company so they can sell their services to third parties.
I was asking here to see if there is a not-for profit way
of reaching the same goal.<br>
