Seriously Danny?

Pierre was the first to suggest the DWG after you replied to him that wouldn't engage in further discussion. You only joined this conversation after I reported you.

There is a massive difference between making edits without review and importing millions of buildings without review.

By the way, I strongly object to the way Nate immediately went to the DWG, instead of attempting to engage in discussion.

I think many people on this list fundamentally misunderstand the way OSM operates.  Most OSM contributions are made by individuals who see a gap/mistake in the data and fix it.  It is not a "community process" where contributions are made by a group of "local mappers" (although this sometimes happens).

The great strength of OSM (relative to Google Maps), is that you can make edits immediately without going through a peer review process.  Some people on this list seem to want to impose a peer review process on OSM (at least for imports, for now), because they think they know better, and should be given power because of it.
