That extreme goes against the "if existing QA tools can spot the issue already, then a fixme is not needed" rule, so it won't happen. A bloated fixme/notes db is indeed no fun. But removing usefull notes is like a company canceling contracts to solve server scaling issues. We "just" need to agree on the usefullness threshold, which of course is a subjective thing. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
