Here are the usage terms for the new aerial imagery released on Google 
Maps/Google Earth today:

Use restricted to non-commercial use in or related to Haitian relief 
efforts. Generating maps for that purpose (only) is fine. Must provide a 
proper and distinct photo credit to Google.

Please don't ask me to interpret this clause for you or apply it to 
specific use cases. (We've been warned against giving interpretive legal 
advice.)

    This is the same stuff being made available over the last few days
    in various other formats that haven't had restrictions. I can speak
    particularly about the Jan 13 GeoEye-1 image and all DG imagery
    which has been communicated to me as being for 'unrestricted use'
    and for wide dissemination. I can help smooth over any problems with
    the two companies if needed.

    Hi,

    Please forgive my naive question : is OSM allowed to use this imagery
    for tracing ?

    Thank you very much
