Hello all,
This isn't (shock horror) specifically a licence-change post.
If Fred has a program running on his computer that downloads OSM
data, then combines it with some proprietary, non-CC-BY-SA stuff,
that's perfectly ok as long as Fred doesn't then distribute the
result. In fact, Fred isn't actually _allowed_ to distribute the result.
And therefore, I presume the same is true if the program is a Flash
app (running client-side, of course, albeit with a browser frame
around it) which outputs the result as a PDF - which Fred can then
save to his local hard drive and/or print. Right?
cheers
Richard
