Perhaps someone else might want to pick up the project&#x2F;create an OSM fork?<p>(as a side note, that&#x27;s exactly why we have avoided Google&#x27;s semi-walled garden on a recent project: &quot;it works, until someone Just Decides that it shouldn&#x27;t work for your project specifically, and there&#x27;s nothing you could do about that.&quot;)
