[talk-au] Unattributed use of map

[Ben Kelley]

Hi.

Yes previously I have just sent an email. e.g.

Hi. I noticed that [feature] on your web site uses Open Street Map as its
base map, but it does not include the correct copyright notice for Open
Street Map. As a contributor to Open Street Map, I wonder if your web site
could be updated to include the correct copyright notice. Thanks.

In this case the company was using an (open source) e-commerce solution
that included maps, but the underlying product used Leaflet, and disabled
the default copyright notice. I also raised a bug report with the
e-commerce platform. Eventually it got fixed.

 - Ben.
