Persuading the author to put up a big reminder at the top of the page saying "OSM users: please upload only to private osm-api servers" or somesuch might be more useful. The tool is presumably useful outside OSM! Alternatively, expand created_by to list WMS layers used during the creation / editing of an object, by URL. Can't really blacklist local wms servers, but it'd help us excise infringing data from/and bad mappers later on. I'd say BAN JOSM at this point, but I really quite like the flexibility. -- Andrew Chadwick _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
