If I will start making those changes, there will be a conflict. Or, if You still insists, that only local mappers are allowed to map particular area, not me but some local mapper. DWG will be involved again, and it will be really wrong to make another decision in another part of the world, because DWG would be not better than our politicians. > If you had followed the whole thread, then you could have seen that e.g. > The mappers in Brussels have decided on a solution that works for them. > Other bi- or multilingual areas chose different solutions.

Even mappers from other russian speaking regions in east of Ukraine supported it. As this whole naming crap started, we had a discussion in ukrainian part of forum and offered russian speaking mappers from Crimea to support them in creating a proposal. None of them showed the will to make such one and to participate in further discussion. Instead someone of them reported ukrainian community as an aggressor to DWG. How can You find a solution involving all parties, if one part is not willing to discus? > A single vandal from outside the area (as that is what you "propose" to > do in the whole ex-USSR) messing around is something a local community > can easily fix themselves. > Can You explain me how? I can also use reverter plugin for JOSM ;-) At the end they will be forced to contact DWG. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
