Hi Manning, Jordi, talk at osm

Jordi can confirm, but i'd say that you need to get direct permission
from the wikiloc.com user, to use their tracks. An easy way todo that
is to comment on their published route (and that user would probably
recieve notice of a comment)

btw, the tracks i have listed are already in OSM, i just uploaded them
to both places. :)
wikiloc is more about recording trips you took & want to share the route.

Cheers,
Sam
