There are other rules that Męp is not complying with, so I'm updating what I can. See the rules:

Essentially, the copyright mention is missing. I've added it yesterday. I'm going to release a new RPM with corrections today or tomorrow.

Sorry for the inconvenience, I discovered it with you and try to patch it in my spare time !
Hi dcaliste! Thanks for your work.

Maybe you are interested also in porting Osm2Go on Sailfish?

Osm2Go is using maep in his core as tile rendering, so maybe you can help also in this thread about keeping osm2go for maemo alive http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=91545

amdmi3 also discovered the issue with the user agent and the code is on github https://github.com/AMDmi3/osm2go

maybe collaboration can help each other
