He agreed that there doesn't seem to be any issue with the code itself. He is going to ask the new SFC lawyer if he sees any problem with the end-user license for the data (which incidentally Google does not own). Open Street Map data of course would be preferable but in the meantime, I think we are not in violation by including the software in ASLO. <div><div></div><div class="h5"> </div></div></blockquote><div>Ok nice to know. this activity should be public then.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> <div><div class="h5"> -walter -- Walter Bender Sugar Labs <a href="http://www.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">http://www.sugarlabs.org</a> </div></div></blockquote></div>
