Now I show my ignorance, but I am assuming that the last major name changes for cities and streets in Russia was post-Stalin, with a few changed after the breakup of the USSR. Am I correct? and now ... what years would be the markers for these events? Because some of post-Stalinist changes would now be expired from copyright? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
