[OSM-talk] Seperate Advertisements fom osm stuff please

[Joerg Ostertag (OSM Munich/Germany)]

Looking at the page
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/index.html
without being logged in, I can't see the difference between our stuff and the 
advertisements. Which means, i just got an e-mail from one of the users I try 
to get working with osm who told me: "I tried to install the software you're 
providing ... and my virusscanner sais it has a virus"
And what i found after investigating more is: he tried to install one of the 
software which was advertised by the google ads. I personally think we should 
make much much more clear, that this is not software for OSM, but 
advertisements. Because this is not a good revenue for us, since (luckily) 
his virusscanner said it thinks this software has a virus in it.

Can we PLEASE make really clear which is advertisement and what is OSM-stuff. 
I think, simply adding someting like

<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<H3>Advertisements by GoogleAd</H3>

before the advertisements would make it more clear.
