but not necessarily in every legal domain.
This is the law in Au, and presumably in US, from where I believe you are
writing, but we have no evidence from elsewhere provided yet.
Case law in Au has taken a different turn from the written law and we are
unsure where we actually stand. Accordingly, talk-au at openstreetmap.org
members are very cautious about using copyright work in the way you have
described.
