Hi

I'm riding my bike in country Vic  and can't do it but
Can someone please write him a polite letter outlining our concerns and requesting that he agree to a revert and undertake to provide adequate changeset descriptions and to reply to comments and consult before large edits.

If we do not get a response then an option would be to refer to the DWG

Tony

There is also that he seems to be deleting all source tags on any loaded objects with many of his changesets.

I wrote a changeset comment on one of the changesets that do that, to which he has simply not replied. (My changeset comments about that and the PBN have been made at the same time, he replied to the later, not the former).

This is exactly the behaviour that earned him a block and a mass revert of scores of changesets 5 years ago. (See my link to the talk-au archive with posts about that earlier in this discussion).

Yes, he has made big changes to the documentation and the map. The same 2 issues apply to both, some of the changes are contrary to community expectations and changes of such scale should be made after consultation. I believe he is acting in good faith but his balance between contribution and consultation is badly out.

The issue for us is to explain to him what the expectations are for consultation without alienating him.

The other thing that occurs to me about this discussion is that
aaronsta is not actually subscribed to this list — does anyone
know? I might leave a comment on the changeset instead...


Not having a go at you blokes interested in the bike routes :-), but
the whole conversation started because Aaronsta made massive changes
to how bikeways etc are written up on the Guidelines!

I don't know about anywhere else, but he has changed them to say that
cycling on footpaths is illegal in Qld, which is totally wrong!

 Thanks

Graeme
