See item 3.*
This was almost the first wiki page I read when I joined OSM in 2008. It was
there then, and it's there now. I haven't always followed it, for instance
in Haiti, but I have always assumed that if it is in the Beginners Guide it
is as close to "policy" as OSM will ever get.*
And I've just noticed, Bing is not mentioned, so I suppose I'll be a good
citizen and add it now.

* I'm not saying it is "policy", as I still don't know what that means in
OSM!
