Good morning, I just want to assure you that TomTom does not share OSM accounts. A new user, who will edit OSM for TomTom either as a direct employee or a partner employee, will create their own profile and that is theirs alone to use. Once this user leaves then their account is not to be used in any further activity for TomTom and is relocated to the Inactive users list in our Organized Editing Wiki page per guidelines. The account should also not be used to reply to changeset comments as what appears to have been the case here so I will look further into this and will then reply to this group.

The Changeset hashtags identified it as a 'fixed' maproutlette challenge (Fixed building and highway intersection) promoted by TomTom. However, the change left a path going through a buiding. So I got in touch with the user via a changeset comment. The response indicated that the person who made the change is not the person who now controls the account. Is it normal for TomTom users to share their accounts amongst a pool of people (people who they seem to have records for, but which the wider OSM community can't attribute changes to?) Here's the changeset: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/148955134 It doesn't seem like good practice to me, but perhaps it's normal/tolerated. Is this a job for DWG, should this 'users' changes be audited somehow, or is the best course of action to just quietly remove the unlikley path (which is still skewering the building). --- https://hdyc.neis-one.org/?spiregrain [email protected] -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
