Having had quite a lot to do with the official UK Geographical Mapping agency, 
Ordnance Survey (producers of very high quality, detailed mapping data) and 
their rather odd business model, I am hoping to to attend a meeting on 2nd 
August where they will introduce their new iOS SDK. I assume that LiveCoders 
won't be able to use this unless someone builds an external, so since this is 
an area of interest for me, I may be in the market for such a thing. That's why 
I didn't put [OT] at the beginning of this mail.

Meanwhile, any Brits interested should follow up

The OS is interesting in that it seems to have conflicting statutory duties 
with regard to data - to enhance British life and businesses by giving it away, 
and at the same time to make money out of it. This has already resulted in some 
rival iOS apps, some of which sell the data and some which give it away!
