[OSM-talk] Legal Wording again..

[Ed Loach]

Chatting on IRC yesterday for suitable updated attribution text for
my Maperitive rendered images, the following was suggested as
sufficient:

© OSM contributors, osm.org/copyright

was suggested as sufficient. My first attempt showed different
attributions for the web map background (cc by-sa) and the data I
was using (odbl).

If I understand it right, you have to have "(c) OSM contributors",
and a hyperlink from that text (or more if you choose) to the
copyright page. ODBL/CC-BY-SA do not need to be specifically
mentioned.

 

Maybe add "Tiles: yourserver (CC-BY-SA)" if you're serving them
locally

honestly we just use the tile

and we wjll follow osm direction

my idea to make more more local server to reduce osm load

and contribution stictly must to osm.org

we will follow any license that osm will pick

here we just use leaflet and osmdroid

Hello Frans,

any idea for the right letter in the map box?


You might want to reimport your data as it is now (and in the
future) available as ODbL. If you stick with CC-BY-SA you will no
longer receive updates from osm.org.

Have a look how to credit the data:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright


Your work can still use CC-BY-SA, so something along "tiles CC-BY-SA
osmosa.net, data (c) Openstreetmap contributors" is fine. one link
to your site, one to openstreetmap as stated in the link above.

Stephan
