I'm still a little confused on how a user that does not accept the new license can simply touch a node or way, and make it so that we have to completely remove the data and recreate it.
vreimer seems to have touched a great deal of ways across Canada, which sparked the "banning" of his account quite a while ago. He is listed as being contacted, but we have never seen a response from this user, at least that I know of. I can understand that if the user modified a tag or something, that we would only need to remove that modification. However I am seeing things where a way from the GeoBase import has somehow been taken over by this user. This means we need to strip out the way, and then completely recreate the way. Here's the deep diff page: http://osm.mapki.com/history/way.php?id=51536611 Obviously this way was created by the GeoBase import robot, but vreimer is shown as the creator. I traced this rail line from the aerial photos years ago, but vreimer is the creator of v1... http://osm.mapki.com/history/way.php?id=51536149 I have to strip out my original work, and retrace the rail line yet again. If after that, someone that does not agree with the license comes along and touches it, then it will need to be stripped out again, and retraced... seems kind of silly that we can't simply "touch" it again, and reclaim the proper license. -- James VE6SRV _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
