Yes, people leave mailing lists because of the endless arguments and constant bike-shedding. But that does not constitute 90% of OSM. I am willing to bet that majority if not 90% of OSM activity is of mappers actually mapping. Mailing list discussions is a really small slice of the overall OSM activity. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
