There have been a couple of threads on OpenStreetMap’s mailing list this month to do with change. The first, entitled “Request for feedback: new building colours in openstreetmap-carto”, is all to do with a change to the way the default map style *looks* on openstreetmap.org. The second, “MEP – pipelines”, refers to a mechanical edit of the OpenStreetMap *data*. Both have been met with some level of resistance – but is this proportionate?
Head over to http://www.mappa-mercia.org/2015/01/change-how-mature-is-openstreetmap.html and find out what I think :-) Your thoughts? I’d love to hear your thoughts on this – where is OpenStreetMap in its maturity and what level of change is appropriate? Is there anything you would like to see changed? And is there anything that must stay the same?
