It's a long story, really. It started with DMI not wanting to pay for  
GM, but at the same time stating publically that OSM is not "as good".  
Local OSMers asked them to qualify that statement, giving examples of  
the exact opposite.

You'll find the link to the claim in the comment section. In danish.

Cheers,
Morten
