I'm sorry, I'm not sure my last email went through. My response was to Rory. Additional text has been added by me after my response to Rory.
Hi Rory, I understand your concern about my tags. I hadn't thought of a supermarket as somewhere that I would also tag retail. And though I understand this concern, I feel it is getting away from the imports topic and more into tagging critiques. A few retail tags have been removed from buildings downtown as well but this was a choice I made. Some of the buildings have apartments or living quarters on the upper levels. I've made the choice to tag buildings as "yes" for now and will tackle very specific tags that pertain to the building as a whole or individually after the import is complete. Thank you! All, I've made certain with the former Municipal Engineer (current City Engineer), Stephen Weatherman, that the imagery is in Public Domain. He has been with the City longer than I have so I knew he would know better than I. All our imagery is owned by the City. For some reason DGGS removed access to the imagery that I was linking to on the wiki. I wrote to them to explain I was trying to share the imagery with Mapbox (different issue) and with the OpenStreetMap crowd. Anyway, I've now put up my City contact info (along with employment page link) on the wiki. We don't have a portal with which I can publish the data for download, but anyone who contacts me at the City may download the data. At first, I thought since this import project is not something I'm working on at work, but instead something I'm working on in my own time, that I wouldn't need to act as if I speak on behalf of the City. But now I feel that it would've made things go smoother. Thank you for all of your responses. Please let me know if there are any further issues on licensing or import. And when do I know that I can proceed? Is it when the ODbL Status gets the green OK? Thanks, Joshua Houston
