various legal stuff on the OSi (Ordnance Survey
Ireland) website indicates a (yearly?) license
is need to republish. a relevant page may be:
http://www.osi.ie/copyright/mapExtractInternet.asp
which says there does exist licensing terms to
“display a _limited_number_of_fixed_map_extracts_
_on_the_Internet_.” (emphasis in original), and
provides some pointers and contact details.
cheers!
