I don't know about Canada, but in Australia it takes about 30mins and about $120 give or take, however that's only for a non-profit, then you need a smart accountant/lawyer to get the proper tax code so donations can be tax deducable. > I'd (really) recommend setting up a talk-nz and a talk-au list with > osm.org so that everyone is on board and on the same page.

That doesn't help me, the majority of the boundaries already exist from other imports, I just need to be able import missing boundaries and create a relation from all the boundaries to form the post code boundary :) _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
