I feel some clarification on what is meant by "import" is needed. For
example recently I've been "importing" names of bays from public
domain maps. I call adding this data from the PD maps to OSM importing
because the data was created somewhere else first, even though I'm
adding it on a case-by-case basis. So when other people here say
"importing" do you mean just mass automated imports, or this kind of
importing as well?
I think this discussion is about
- automated
- big
imports.
Importing 5 Streets from somewhere(tm) does not hurt, even importing 50
POIs won't hurt - even - adding address information to 200 existing POIs
wont. It's not only about the number of changes but also if the import
adds data to existing objects or creates them from scratch.
I think this is something we should evaluate on a by-case basis.
