I'm not answering directly to your post, but I think you may like my 
answer ;)


I'm currently working on the Panoramax project, co-originated by 
OpenStreetMap France and IGN (Institut Géographique National).

In the very near future, we should have a street-level imagery offer 
that matches:

- open source tooling

- community project

- (real) open licensing scheme

as well as...

- decrentralized / federated solution... to avoid having one more time a 
single point of failure with an actor hosting all the pictures !

We have not communicated much so far except in France on 
https://panoramax.fr/ as we're still working on the MVP.
