Does anyone care about these reports ?
I said it before and I'm saying it again, we can't monitor/administer
the map
everyday and you know this, we don't even have enough people
contributing in OSM
here in Kosovo and Serbians are using this opportunity to change
whatever they
want in the map.
I don't think that you might want to loose contributors from Kosovo !?
You have to report these violations... how much will this last until
someone
makes a decision ?
We have already reported so many violations till now.
'Location' is somewhat hit or miss everywhere. My own diary postings give
some strange textual descriptions of where they were supposed to be located.
The problem here is simply that there is no clear mechanism for identifying
'where' a location is, so until all of the relevant boundaries are mapped
and tested in the same way as the intensive effort on getting the coastline
complete it is going to be difficult to fix some of these irritations.
I've given up asking for a proper check on hierarchy place and is_in which
would at least get towns in the right country ... rather than relying on the
mapped boundaries ...
this has changed, it used to be kosovo.
it needs to be fixed, please.
My point is ... does anybody actually know where it is broken?
It is not the 'is_in' tag ... that isn't used to determine location ... last
time I tried looking at this problem in the UK nobody seemed to know how the
location was ACTUALLY generated :( It looks to the 'administrative boundaries'
areas and so presumably someone has been playing with them? It's a pain trying
to find what has been 'modified' ...
( No bloody politics here RB !!! )
