Steve pushed out the Yahoo imagery in the applet on Monday .. it's live :)


Yahoo is monitoring our requests for new imagery from this page
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Yahoo%21_Aerial_Imagery#Not_Covered

No guarantees, but a possible influence.


For use of the imagery in other editors, Yahoo is hesistant to approve this _unless_
the imagery is accessed through their AJAX or Flash APIs. 
Is it a possibility, for example, for a JOSM plugin to run a web browser instance 
behind the editing layer? 
(We should probably take this discussion to osm-dev)
