[Talk-ca] Labelling camp site numbers.

A few months ago I entered the roads for campgrounds specifically : 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=44.32948&lon=-79.3248&zoom=16&layers=M

It's not complete but a good start.   I had two thoughts.

1.  If I grab the camp site numbering off the reservations website 
and/or campground maps would that be a violation of copyright?

2.  Do we have any rules around adding it?  Or should I just follow how 
the CanVec data has done the addr: tags?


Side question:  Is it a violation to pull the names of object from 
google?   (ie:  Forest Lawn Cemetery?)  Does google have copyright traps 
like purposely miss-spelling names to catch copyright violators.

Man copyright on maps is so silly in my mind. :-)
