Any white-labeling or rebranding use requires explicit written permission from the Organic Maps team
this is not a free license. you may feel it's a reasonable and justified clause, and i wont argue against that, however it is factually incorrect to call it free in the sense of user freedom

@memoria @opensourceopenmind @manankanchu would you please elaborate? Many free licenses require attribution, in the same way as OM requires when using its map data files. Wikipedia, OpenStreetMap.org, even FDroid icon requires attribution. Allowing to remove attribution is more freedom than disallowing it.
