IMHO the underlying main problem is that OSM is steadily moving towards some kind of OpenGeoDump™: • Something has coordinates? – Put it into the OSM database, because OSM is about coordinates! • Don't know how to set up a GIS system? – Put it into the OSM database, because nothing beats an existing GIS setup! • Don't know how to keep data up-to-date? – Put it into the OSM database, because it's the duty of OSM people to maintain your data! (You might notice some kind of pattern.) Eckhart _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
