This is of course great news for OSM. Microsoft also provides Bing satellite imagery for free and helps in the development of some tools.<p>But a little reminder: in 2013 the Knight Foundation gave 575000 USD for the development of the iD map editor. This is an editor that runs in a browser on the OSM homepage. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wiki.openstreetmap.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;ID#Project_history" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wiki.openstreetmap.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;ID#Project_history</a>

Glad to see a no-strings attached gift. Being Microsoft, though, I would not mind seeing a higher number.
