Thank you DWG for tracking the state of the imports validator.

I am well aware that none of you want to have any imports to OSM. Even when every point is manually checked against knowledge and photos. But this issue is about licensing, and I want you to elaborate on that.

As you know, the imports validator is no editor. The data is supplied by a third party along with a full permission to use the data. Any input in the validator only restricts which features and their attributes are NOT imported.

And here you, on behalf on the entire DWG, are saying you cannot take decisions to NOT map something in OSM if it's not on Google Street View. Could you please explain, why the DWG considers it a terms violation? Are there any other previously unknown restrictions we don't know about? Like, that we should map only things that are missing on google maps, or such?

Please take another look at the import.

It has recently been brought to the DWG's attention that the North
American part of this import (at the very least)
http://audit.osmz.ru/project/navads_fuel_na is using Google Street View
as a source (see screenshot at
https://map.atownsend.org.uk/tmp/screens_20180504_01002.png ).

Presumably this means that _none_ of this data can now be imported into OSM.

Best Regards,

Andy Townsend, on behalf of OSM's Data Working Group.
