[Talk-us] osm data on boston.com, perhaps, definitely not atttributed

Agreed.

The oddest thing to me is the behavior is specifically sensitive to being
iframed.
The src= link used directly has attribution

"© OpenStreetMap <http://www.openstreetmap.org> and contributors, under an open
license <http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright>"

but when used in iframe src= (exactly as shown as entire <body>)

"Tiles courtesy of MapQuest <http://www.mapquest.com/>"


If that's even correct on MapQuest (e.g. due to MapQuest ackn elsewhere on
page),
it should only be true if iframe referer is *.Mapquest.com not some other
site?

added thought -- If  osm.org is serving tiles *rendered* by MQ perhaps
*BOTH* are in order ! )
