I can see the point in this, but I'd rather prefer an openimportmap with a separate database, where you can upload all kind of rubbish and keep the main OSM-db as clean as possible from imports. There are actually a lot of mappers that go out and collect "unique" geoinformation manually, and I think that this is the key feature of OSM. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
