I'm still looking for a FaiF version of something like this - does anybody know of one? Seems like a slap in the face to all of the OSM developers to use an entirely Free stack with a proprietary veneer on it.

#12I liked the download as KML - it loaded up okay in Google Earth. Would be good to have map state in the URL bar, e.g. map position and probably basemap selected for sharing which I would imagine is in your list.

#14It's nice that this isn't Google, and it's a good product, but it's still a non-Free product. I'm still looking for a FaiF version of something like this - does anybody know of one?

But honestly, even if it's proprietary, OpenStreetMappers don't mind. We're happy that someone is using our data, that's what we are there for.

#17kept giving me a "Try again" error Tried different emails and passwords but it kept giving the same non descriptive "Try again" error.

Now, what you are looking for is probably something along the lines of uMap http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UMap which has something like a WTFPL license https://github.com/umap-project/umap/ and which is something I point people to. It's lacking the design flair of this product but it's probably a bit more feature rich.
