Aren't there two separate issues here:- 1) Disagreements between OS and OSM,
2) Representation of those disagreements in the tools. I don't think anyone is disagreeing that all disagreements in should be ideally resolved. Ed's suggestion related to the tools such that certain differences weren't flagged to enable us to prioritise tasks. Entirely missing areas are more important (IMO) than missing apostrophes and I agree it would be useful for my mapping if the ITO layer didn't highlight apostrophe differences.

Good for you. But there are tens of thousands of missing streets. Entire villages and even towns are still entirely missing. Then there are plenty enough cases where OSM and OS have quite different names for the same street. I would prefer to concentrate on those and come back to the apostrophes later. All I suggest is that the report have an option to ignore the trivial differences and flag up the more important ones. -- Ed Avis <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
