Looks like the guys at roadguide have clamped down tighter on leaking the contributors map now that the leaders are selling it to papago (or some other map maker)...![]()

I read that story somewhere too. The reason they do'nt open the contributors edition to the public because others are selling it but now they are selling it too. If the want the map to be more detailed they should open it to all GPS users and just campaign or inform the public that it should not be for sale.
the reason they don't open the contributors edition to the public is that it's a "contributors" map.
you contribute, you get the map.
you don't contribute, you can f%^k o^f.
guys like you who don't contribute nor willing to expand the map and just try to leech of others are basically the main reason they went to the contributing system.
afaik the map hasn't been sold to anyone. older version get licensed out to papago i believe
We beg to differ from you, we have some well known examples:

Free Topo Spain, etc etc , I could continue...
All these are free and open projects, forums are opened for users and they can partecipate,get infos and help, download, to be involved and contribute in a friendly context.
Restrictions ,I guess ,are self-defeating and generate suspects, like we can read above.
You have to navigate to get to the good.
