Thanks. I should've looked in the Wiki first ;-)

Yep, it works!

> OpenStreetMap Foundation does not and has never ever made any claim to
> own the data.  It's your data Frederik, not ours.

I was aware of that. (I have been told that laws in my country make  
it impossible for anyone to own works that I have created, anyway. I  
can only transfer rights, not ownership.)

Bye
Frederik
