I second Joseph's comment -- the proposal has to be very short for people to review it - e.g. less than a page, with a clear usage examples -- take a few well known ones like Crimea and Kashmir, and just list all features (ways/relations) and their tags. (actually most people don't read beyond

I thought the proposal was too complicated. This made it difficult to review, so I was reluctant to vite. I believe a simpler, more approachabke proposal would have a higher chance of success. I’d recommend reading all of the objections and trying again with a much simpler version. On Wed, Mar

John, thanks for all the work on this. What surprises me is that some people are so oppose to the principal value of OSM itself -- to allow mappers to map. Disputed territories still need to be mapped - because they reflect reality of the dispute, and because many data consumers need it.

Thanks. I never did post the final vote, which was 17 yes, 14 no, and 2 abstain. (There was an additional yes vote after the time period elapsed, which has no effect on the outcome.) The proposal was therefore defeated, not having achieved anywhere near 74% approval. I suspect that it is not
