I personally think that it's not worth it to worry about those 
prohibitions, because North Koreans don't have that access to the 
internet anyways. The Forum might be a place though where some armchair 
mapper asks questions regarding mapping North Korea, so. Anyways, just a 
thought, not so important. Good we have that forum now, maybe a welcome 
post would be nice! (and something the search engines can index..)
