I've just been reading up carefully on the OSMF website, and it is written there that OSM and OSMF are not the same. So should I believe Grant Slater or the published material of OSMF which has been unaltered over more than a year? There is a marked difference between the stated objectives of OSMF and the current behaviour of the Board and its subcommittees. http://www.osmfoundation.org/ will take you to the OSMF published material _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
