I was considering asking the question If we have an anarchic OpenStreetMap from where did the permission come for certain persons to be the moral guardians of the list? To make this quite clear to those who don't speak English as a first language There are people on this mailing list who not only are prolific writers, but their opinions are not those of some others. These people have been targeted on list and with private mail telling them to cease writing to this list because its for important stuff / something else. No-one has any rights to dictate what happens on this list. We have been recently told that the project doesn't have an benevolent dictator, so there is no-one to delegate power to determine what is written on this list. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
