Alan,
Dang! I thought I was close. I had SCRD fix their cut-and-paste
error and agree that an addition to the OSM' Contributors page would be
adequate for attribution. I'll see if I can get them to add something
similar. Maybe I should contact the OSM Licensing Working Group first.
Thanks!
Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
