[OSM-talk] OS - API and open data

[Steve Chilton]

Thanks to http://www.allpointsblog.com/ there is a link to a piece at
silicon.com expanding a little on the OS API suggestion that arose at UK
maship meeting last month. It quotes Ed Parsons heavily - and mentions
Openstreetmap. 

See: http://www.silicon.com/publicsector/0,3800010403,39163696,00.htm

I was particularly intrigued by this quote from Ed:
"I could easily see OS making use of open source data or providing open
source data." 

Cheers
STEVE
