All the time? > IMHO if you are a board > member you can't act as a private individual when it comes to stuff > concerning the OSMF. Do you have a basis for that opinion? "concerning the OSMF" is awfully broad, as is "act as a private individual". Are you really suggesting that a board member is acting other than as a private individual when s/he does something which affects the OSMF? Is a board member acting as an agent of the OSMF every time s/he edits OSM, or throws a mapping party, or lets someone borrow his computer in order to edit, or drives someone to SOTM? Or is there something else this board member is acting as, other than as a private individual or as an agent of the OSMF? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
