Re: [OSM-dev] Editors: Actively removing created_by?

Would that be desirable/acceptable? They are, and have been since soon after API 0.6 went live. I think it's desirable. They'll still be available in the object history, and the removal is packed in with a real edit, so no superfluous edits needed just to remove the created_by. It's a matter of attrition now. Very slow attrition nonetheless. -- Lennard ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

I think it's desirable. They'll still be available in the object history, and the removal is So do I. I wonder why a bot hasn't been run to remove them all. I guess that would slim the planet measurably... ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
