Sheesh, has Donovan lost all his currency? > Oh my Lord, you've completely missed the point. Errr, no, I agree with you. > In relation to the boolean problem OSM is saying that blue & green are > the *same* thing. No, I'm saying that mountain=green and mountain=viridian are the same thing, but that when SteveC tells us to use green we should use green. See, the thing about open source leadership is that it's never done forcefully, because the community can fork the project. It must be a guiding hand, not a dictating hand. And I trust SteveC to listen to community input. I mean, he had the wisdom to GIVE US free-form tags in the first place, why shouldn't we listen to him when he says that random tagging (it's building=puppy, damn those spaniards) is not recommended. -- --my blog is at http://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-323-1241 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
