Hi, fellow mappers!

Our import project
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Slovenia_Landcover_Import_-_RABA-KGZ
is nearly ready for a start of the actual import by the community.
I had a quick skim and had a few questions

- Is the ministry okay that the source and source:date tags could be deleted in the future? - Why indicate the source on the objects when you are indicating it on the changeset?
- I suggest adding source:date to the changeset

- What are your plans for the raba:id tag you are proposing? Experience has shown that these types of tags fall out of sync as features are edited and don't tell you anything that couldn't be derived from other information - raba:id makes it sound like it's an ID for the polygon, not an ID for the type of landuse it is

- Most government farm data sources do not have a category that corresponds directly to landuse=meadow. This is born out by large not-meadows having been imported as landuse=meadow and having to be fixed in past imports. Are you *positive* that it is the appropriate tag? What is the translation of the description for id 1300?

- Is any simplification being applied?

Some blank (or landuse-tag-free at least) areas were used for test import of limited scale a few days ago:
Karst: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=15/45.4787/13.7335
Alps: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=15/46.4279/13.6791
Farmland: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/46.1345/15.5874
I see multiple disjoint polygons being represented as a single polygon, e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/4761048

These should all be simply tagged closed ways with no relations to avoid maintenance problems, unnecessary multipolygons, and other problems. The explodecollections option of ogr2ogr may be useful here. This will also need cleaning up in the area you've already imported.
