Hello,
do you know that now we have to create a billing account for google api for to use google api? this is a problem for webagency because our client don't like give us their credit card so we risk that we have to pay google api for their use , so let me know if I can use Openstreetmap api for your Map module.
Thanks
Leonardo

Yes, we are aware of the changes induced by Google.

We have analysed this and for most of the usage this should not have an impact - this means, most of the users will not be charged by Google.
The problem remains that by the new rules, Google expects any user to register previously for payment.
Even the user will eventually never make use of paid services or exceed the number of free API Calls, the registration is mandatory as it seems.

We are evaluating different methods to help Toolset Users with this issue, and I will add the suggestion to include other Maps Providers as a source.
