thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version, and updated the
catalogue repository.
The package should by now have reached all CTAN mirrors.

getmap – Download OpenStreetMap maps for use in documents
The package provides a simple interface to OpenStreetMap, and to Google Maps “map images”. In the simplest case, it is sufficient to specify the address you need (if you don’t, the package will use its own default).
The package loads the map image using an external lua script (invoked via \write 18: LaTeX must be running with \write 18 enabled).
The (“external”) lua script may be used from the command line; a bash version is provided.
