OpenBox, A Developer For Apple iPhoto?s OpenStreetMap, Gets $575K From The Knight Foundation

Today MapBox, which develops for the open-sourced, crowdsourced OpenStreetMap, announced a grant of $575,000 from the Knight Foundation, its third from the group, which it says it will use to help improve the core infrastructure of OpenStreetMap -- a boost for open data.
