[OSM-talk] allowable use of openstreetmap tiles for websites and others

[maning sambale]

Hi,

Adding a slippy map with openstreetmap data for any webpage is now
very easy using the export to html functionality.  I have been telling
other people to do just that if they want to add a map to their own
sites.
How "much" is allowed in using OSM tiles for their own website?  For
very high traffic sites, would this affect OSM's servers?  I think we
can encourage the use of this specially for non-profit sites (with no
budget to serve their own tiles) but what those who create business
out of it?

cheers,
maning
