Marc, thanks. I was under the assumption that talk is the global community - as it is the most generic in the list, unlike talk-us and talk-us-newyork. Does it meany that any global proposal would require talking to hundreds of communities independently, making it impossible to coordinate, because comments in one community would not be visible to other communities? Is there any kind of ambassadorial program? Also, does it mean that talk-us doesn't decide anything because there is a talk-us-newyork?
In this specific case, adding wikidata seemed like a long overdue task, something that is already happening automatically by the unmonitored iD feature. Btw, I looked at the descriptions at https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo On Mon, Sep 25, 2017 at 11:14 PM, Marc Gemis <marc.ge...@gmail.com> wrote: > > moving it here.
