For the record, in East Europe where Google Street View has no
coverage, there's a an almost identical service provided by Norc.ro,
who explicitly allow usage in OSM.  And I have to say it's extra
useful, you can usually see all of the street signs, phone numbers on
shops' front windows and many other things.  If you've missed
something during survey you can go back "virtually" and fix it.

Cheers
