"- Search and Edit POI. True maps will allow you to search for specific places of interest nearby and to even add your owns totally offline. Since true maps will interact directly with openstreetmap your POI will also be available to everyone!" This seems like a bit of a dilemma. On the one hand we want a mass market POI editing tool to capture all those long tail contributors, on the other hand that's never going to happen if we block any prospective app as soon as it starts to become popular. 80n On Tue, Mar 16, 2010 at 9:38 AM, Tom Hughes <[email protected]> wrote: > On 16/03/10 09:35, Andy Robinson (blackadder-lists) wrote:# > > > Then is some further discussion on the same for the API also required and > a > > policy, perhaps similar to the format of tiles, established?
