[OSM-newbies] New source for editing Openstreetmap in Balearic Islands (Spain)/Nueva fuente para editar las Islas Baleares

[Xan]

I will answer this mail. But refering to the condition of tagging 
source=ideib.cat, really, really, really it's not the case.

The permission they give me is _literally_:

"You could use the IMATGES-AERIES service [N.T.: aerial imatges service] 
as a background for editing other layer. You only have to cite the source"

That we have to "cite the source" I interpreted as put source=... put 
really, it suffices to mention "IDEIB" in the comment of the update data 
(comment tag I think), in "note" tag, in anything else. But mention the 
source.

Xan.
