Another possibility (that I *much* prefer) is that the available data is used in the same was as, say, aerial imagery - i.e. not bulk imported, but used directly and interactively by mappers. This is why I think John is wrong to be "protective" of data that could be useful - I see it as analogous to being "protective" of, say, aerial imagery. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
