Do you have the names of the GM's and the time they were talking with you?
If you read the original development thread of EQ2MAP you can see some official hints.

The only thing different EQ2MAP has then from a custom interface is that it comes with an auto updater you run before you load eq2 so you have the latest version of it. The program does not run while you play eq2 and the files it downloads go directly into your custom UI folder.
Sent an email to one of the interface dev's to maybe get an official comment.
edit: Mr.Bobble is on vacation at the moment but should be back soon.
If this was illegal we would not be supporting it and SOE would let us know this.
