I'm off for a break and I'm leaving a couple of key imports partially

I'm told that Brian has been blocked for these edits This is
outrageous.
No, he was sent this message:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user_blocks/1271
because it appeared that the link between changeset discussions and his
email inbox was broken.
There is clearly consensus for them in the local mapping
community, and a well-defined and transparent plan for the process has
been published.
That was one of the questions asked in changeset discussions - can you
please link to where the "well-defined and transparent plan" for the
"trees" import was published, and where discussion took place?
A well-respected member of the community should not be treated this way.
No-one doubts that Brian is well-respected member of the OSM community -
few if any have put in as much effort as him over the years.
Unfortunately even well-respected community members can have email
filters go rogue on them - it's not the first time that it's happened
and I'm sure it won't be the last :)
Best Regards,
Andy
(cc:ing talk@ because I know there's been discussion, including on IRC,
outside the West Mids about the trees import and as similar sort of
council work is being outsourced elsewhere, it's useful to discuss it
more widely).
