Spin 9: Malfreemaps data is not for sale

Anthony Yong wrote in his blog that Malfreemaps data is not for sale. This contradicts with his parting words when he left Malsingmaps:

5. Our long term future is not secured because we are releasing unauthorised Garmin maps. Our agreement with Mapking lapses when they release Mapking 2009. I am consulting part-time with a local IT company. I am working on a win-win deal between the company, the new community and a software navigation company. If I can get the new community to be recognised as an official map provider, we will doubt our future no more.

As they say on The O'Reilly Factor; The spin stops here. Malfreemaps data IS for sale.
