Re: [OSM-dev] Data source for robot
I understand that many people say bots are bad because of bad expierences but i don't see the point when you say You seem to be tackling it from the perspective that running a bot is the right way to solve it, and it's not. This is just you are not of my opinion and as long as you are not this is going nowhere... sorry, but what i see happening on the list a lot of times is, that people who just want to contribute somehow are smashed into the ground. ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
Re: [OSM-dev] Data source for robot
obviously they are either good enough in there current status or no one cares about it. there is 0 benefit in automatic edits. Are you serious? What about the guy that wants to use any kind of routing software to go from A to B? if streets are not connected in a place where nobody cares this means he will get redirected over some areas where people care. Hell, this whole discussion looks like a witch-hunt. Because all robot-edits are the devil. And the general tone here is very discouraging for everyone that might think about investing time into OSM. ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
Re: [OSM-dev] ESRI article sent by a friend
Don't know if you can really make a hard cut, saying what is an import and what not. Or to make it more clear: What is the difference between a good import of some data that is 10 years old and a mapper that is drawing areas based on some landsat-imagery (which is as far as i know from 2003)? Both do add loads of data from a foreign source. I don't think that old or imported data is a problem, as long as the import-quality is okay. (e.g. do not import data that we already have (street on an street)).

For the simple reason that there is not only one rendering of /the/ OpenStreetMap map. 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 dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
Re: [OSM-dev] foreign key constraint violation in live-api
As far as I know the API (and I only know it from wiki-doc) it could only be a problem if you are trying to upload a way, whose nodes are not uploaded at that moment. So this should not happen in parallel.

Do you think that could be the reason ?

Re: [OSM-dev] foreign key constraint violation in live-api
Perhaps one should add a hint to http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6 that parallel uploads _may_ cause problems. I could add this to the wiki if you want, but I would only do so if you think this is useful. but I suspect it was the parallel upload that led to the deadlock and that it explains why other people don't see the same problems. ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
[OSM-dev] Wrong display of urls in tags
Hello, when you are on a page like: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/671785382 The http: is cut out of the value.
