This puts the stated role of the OSMF a as whole in question: e.g. Core values: „ Ground Truth: OSM favours objective “Ground Truth” over all other sources“ Mission statement: OSMF „ Does not decide what to map or how to map“ The OSMF Board: „ Does not drive mapping in a particular direction Does not decide what to map or how to map Has no role in setting tags ... Does not undermine the Working Groups by taking on tasks that could be advanced by them“ https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Mission_Statement So likely the time the board has requested is because it is planning to consult with the community about changing the core values, which is also part of its responsibility: „ Sets core values for OSM (via consultation)“ Cheers, Martin
