[Openstreetmap] Old map copyrights

[Jeremy Stocks]

Hello there,

I like the idea of using old maps. I found this link through the web today http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/historical/munich_1858.jpg which contains many useable features.

Isn't there some kind of 100 year rule by which one can use this map?

Additionally, what about VMAP data? I have seen this as a Bittorrent datastream. Please can someone explain this?

GIS is now starting to wake up and get exciting!
