[OSM-talk] OSM support in KDE's Marble

[Ludwig]

There was once a project called gaia which had re-engineered access to
Google Earth data. They got a fairly unpleasant, but justified, letter from
Google to cease and desist. (

).

It would be wise to clear this with Yahoo before embarking on this.
