I agree that we shouldn't ship broken things like this. Just a sidenote, I'm always very careful when reading "from a user perspective" as an argument in a discussion. I'm still looking for "the user" and the person who knows "the users perspective" and couldn't find those two yet ;) All the best Matthias On 09/21/2016 07:38 PM, Anita Graser wrote: > Mathieu Pellerin wrote >> Unless we have a feature parity with the current openstreetmap tool >> (offered through vector -> openstreetmap), please do not drop it. > > From a user and software quality perspective, I think that we should not > ship a severely broken plugin as core plugin while the working Quick OSM > plugin has to be installed separately.

From a user and software quality perspective, I think that we should not ship a severely broken plugin as core plugin while the working Quick OSM plugin has to be installed separately. (Even if one is lacking a specific feature over the other.) Make the broken OSM importer optional.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Deprecation of the Vector - OpenStreetMap - Importer
Unless we have a feature parity with the current openstreetmap tool (offered through vector -> openstreetmap), please do not drop it. One useful feature that isn't available through OGR (or QuickOSM last time I trieD) is the exporting of individual tags as fields (versus only creating a few fields and an "other_tags" field).

[Qgis-developer] Deprecation of the Vector - OpenStreetMap - Importer
Dear all, This topic pops up regularly on the mailing lists, but nothing happened lately. The OS import tool is still not able to load features with node numbers exceeding the 32bit-unsigned limit, see http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/64-bit_Identifiers . As a consequence, features get lost, or lines and polygons don't get imported at all, as soon as recently added nodes are involved. This makes the importer quite useless. Following the discussion here at http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Suggestion-Remove-Vector-Openstreetmap-tool-from-QGIS-2-12-td5226614.html and on GIS SE http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/211000/is-there-a-qgis-tool-that-handles-osm-64-bit-identifiers-correctly I suggest to drop the 3-part importer from the Vector menu. Add vector layer and the QuickOSM plugin can import OSM data without the 32-bit limitation. It would be good to drop the item in the upcoming QGIS 2.18. Alternatively, somebody would have to change the data type for osm_id in the spatialite export (part 2 of the 3-part-importer) from integer to long integer or text.
