This has been popping up in my social networks since yesterday and I have not seen it echoed here... So there - the White House uses OpenStreetMap : http://www.whitehouse.gov/mapping_service/inventory/524
How is that for an endorsement ?

Not an attribution for OSM in sight.

Pink Duck, look at the bottom right corner of the map : "(c)CCBYSA 2010 OpenStreetMap.org contributors"

On osm-talk, Pieren reminded us that Whitehouse.org using Cloudmade osm maps has been announced on this list on the 5th March 09...That was news to me and apparently to a few others. Anyway, sorry for the re-post... I only searched current news and neglected to look deeper in the archives - I couldn't imagine this had been going on for so long !

This has been the situation for some time now (like, shortly after Obama took office). Also, it's not whitehouse.org, it's whitehouse.gov.
