OSM attribution #56

Closed porjo closed 4 years ago

The current attribution panel displays like this: screenshot from 2016-08-22 07-55-48

It's not clear that this is a license attribution. IMHO it'd be better to provide an attribution like © OpenStreetMap contributors, perhaps with a bit more left/right margin to separate it from 'Scout' and 'Leaflet'

I was about to create the same new issue ;)

Absolutely. This is what OSM requests in their Legal FAQ: Our requested attribution is "© OpenStreetMap contributors".

It's not absolutely necessary: Because OpenStreetMap is its contributors, you may omit the word "contributors" if space is limited. http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence/Licence_and_Legal_FAQ#How_should_I_attribute_you.3F

One shouldn't omit the ©, though

Just checked site and this is fixed
