[OSM-legal-talk] Proper attribution

[Sam Larsen]

Hi all,

I am looking into the proper attribution of OSM in a tiled web mapping scenario.  I know the guidelines on attribution can be found on the wiki - and i have read them.
There is also the list of non-conforming sites: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Lacking_proper_attribution
Does anyone think, we should have a list of 'conforming' sites - as the CloudMade maps and even the main www.openstreetmap.org are listed as not having proper attribution.  
I think it would be useful to have at least one example of conforming attribution (even though i know the attribution will change in the near future anyway) for people to use as a case study / reference.  Of course if people were to be referencing this website, it would have to be absolutely correct and stay unchanged while it is used as a reference.

Maybe a site could be mocked-up within the wiki somewhere?

I haven't contributed to the wiki before - maybe this could be my calling - if anyone thinks it is needed.
