Il sito del software incriminato è
http://gaia.serezhkin.com
Il messaggio degli sviluppatori ha del surreale... Comunque credo che
nessuno possa impedire loro di pubblicare le API retroingegnerizzate...
o sbaglio?

Sorry, but it seems that Google send a cease&desist letter to gaia
developers, as you can see in their webpage (URL above):
25 November 2006, we've got the letter from Michael Jones, the Chief
Technologist of Google Earth, Google Maps, and Google Local search,
requesting us to cease reverse engineering and improper usage of
licensed data that Google Earth use. We understand and respect Google's
position on the case, so we've removed all downloads from this page and
we ask everybody who have ever downloaded gaia 0.1.0 and prior versions
to delete all files concerned with the project, which include source
code, binary files and image cache (~/.gaia).
