We don't have any issues with the CTs, it's just that they're not legally
compatible with our licence, that requires you to distribute tracings from
our PhotoMaps as CC-BY-SA (and our licence hasn't changed, and was
originally designed to be compatible with OSM).

Incidentally, even as of January 2011, I see that 1% of all the requests* to
our site were referrered from www.openstreetmap.org.  Without some detailed
log analysis I can't see if they're likely to be Potlatch, but it does
indicate that there are still people tracing.  There are also several
hundred thousand requests from JOSM.
