Grammatical mistake

When I print maps from openstreetmap.org, a message appears underneath which says

Licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 2.0 license
by the OpenStreetMap project and it's contributors.

Clearly, that should be "its contributors". 

If you read this and have rights to change the message, please do. Alternatively, let me know where to report this.

Thanks

Oliver

Re: Grammatical mistake

its -> their

So Oliver is right, it seems to me...

Re: Grammatical mistake

Best if you report things like this on trac, our bug-tracking site - then anyone with code commit access can fix it. TomH has more than enough to do.

URL is trac.openstreetmap.org. You log in with your usual OSM username and password.

But I note that Tom has already fixed this - http://trac.openstreetmap.org/changeset … w_path=%2F - and presumably it'll be live on the next deployment.
