Hi,
http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright lists a couple of the big
contributors. I'm not sure where the limit is, but there's a CC-By-SA
source that we've been using in Poland for the last over two years,
currently I estmate there must be 2 or 3 million nodes derived from
that source in places where OSM didn't have local mappers. Can/should
it be added in that section?
The note should probably look something like:
Poland: contains data from UMP-pcPL maps. Copyright UMP-pcPL contributors.
I'd especially like to credit this project because they're a community
project very similar in spirit and scope to OSM, mapping since 2001.
I expect there are more such sources but all four listed on that page
are from English-speaking countries so the communication probably has
been better about these sources.
Cheers
