usage policy of osm tiles

[brunesto]

I believe this app does not follow the usage policy of osm: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/tiles/ "Requirements 1 Heavy use (e.g. distributing an app that uses tiles from openstreetmap.org) is forbidden without prior permission from the Operations Working Group. See below for alternatives. 2 Clearly display license attribution. ... "

Gluon Maps is not an app, but a library. The usage policy of osm should be followed by the user of the library. But indeed, it would be good to make this more clear and I totally agree the policy should be followed, so if we can help with this, it would be good. Or we can remove osm by default as a provider, so that developers using Gluon Maps explicitly have to add it, which increases the chances the policy is clearly read, understood and followed.

Regarding the license, https://github.com/gluonhq/maps/tree/master/samples/mobile looks like an app to me :) . Regarding distributing osm tiles, for example https://leafletjs.com/ samples use mapbox

Ok, we'll remove that app.
