It is still against their TOS to use the Maps API on a private Intranet =
or anywhere that isn't freely accessible by the general public. Few =
people would want to make their Nagios install accessible or would be =
willing to spend the $$ to purchase Google Maps API Premier (which =
starts at $10K US I believe). Until that changes, I don't see that =
Nagios should encourage people to break a TOS by including it, IMHO.
