The idea of asking a ranger to trace the boundary (on a printout of a
thoroughly detailed OSM, of course: better get to work...) is a great one.
iirc, the boundaries are all pretty major geographical features, so
hopefully fairly easy. But yes, Jez, what a faff.
Out of interest, is OS's position on derived data clearly the correct one
legally speaking? I note the wiki talks in terms of OS 'claiming' IP in
the derived data, not that it actually *is* their IP, so I wondered.
Obviously whether OS have over-egged or not it is a wholly different
question from whether, if they have, OSM would want to challenge them - I'm
asking from a theoretical pov only.
