I understand your point... i took a look at dekima.com
I think you are right about "attribution and ownership"... If you modify a map, we will not put our "lawyers" over you... but the art sense persists, and it is a matter of respect and cooperation.
The main issue which disrupt any cooperation over map modding, imho, it is that art cannot be improved because it does not follow a clear pattern/purpose... it is more like feeling than reasoning... a good map for you can be an awful map to other guy. Anyway, the maps are the babies of the mappers... do not touch in their babies or they will hate you forever...
