John McKerrell: Open Street Map Session

"The Open Street Map project aims to create a free and open geographical data set that can be used for many applications including streetmaps and routing based applications. The project was started because most maps you think of as free actually have legal or technical restrictions on their use, holding back people from using them in creative, productive, or unexpected ways." http://www.oekonux-conference.org/program/events/21.en.html)
