Hello everyone...
I noticed that the Dorset/Wiltshire county boundary just north of
Shaftesbury is shown in the wrong place in OSM. There is a road sign on
the A350 about a quarter mile north of the junction with the A30,
whereas the map shows the boundary crossing the A350 about a mile to the

I see no real problem.
All of my Opendata-based edits have clear source tags; apart from quality
control issues, I have always understood this is needed for the licence even

Thanks 80n and David,
Potlatch is still offering Opendata as a layer, with no warning as to the

OSM has always taken a very conservative approach on licensing and if in
doubt has erred on the side of caution.
Following this philosophy you cannot agree to the contributor terms.
If you can find a way to revert your OS contributions then you would be able

I've been mapping off and on since April 2006, and I've contributed
approximately 1320 changesets in that time. Only three of which include OS
data. Are all my contributions going to be rejected?

I'm now not touching OS data
