Because some parts of the border (notably maritime and along shifting rivers) are disputed and we try to represent this fact in OSM instead of using OSM as a battlegrund to find or define the one and only "truth". Disputed parts are tagged disputed=yes and it is also mentioned in the name (eg "Border SI-HR (Disputed)") to make it clearer.
Of course most parts aren't disputed and in such cases the better source could probably be used. One is an import from wikimedia (with a note = rough estimate in some places, please refine) while the other one is imported from official Slovenian source (source=GURS). Later is probably better, but we don't want to force this down the throats of Croats. Of course they are welcome (and encouraged!) to reuse the acceptable parts of that border to refine their version of the border. It could also be interesting to get some official Croatian source imported to identify those disputes (and probably find some nice pockets of no man's land by the river :) ) Discussion on talk-si@ list in Slovenian: http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-si/2009-August/ Some info in Croatian: http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/mvrban/diary/7626 Stefan _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
