While the goals sound worthy, it is unclear if any of the grid systems (w3w, plus codes and so on) deliver on their promises and have any traction outside of people in countries with established addressing systems trying to push them as solutions for countries without.
As I've pointed out before, if OSM supports a specific system, it amounts to us picking a winner , and I really don't think that is a good idea. w3w wants to make money from royalties, google wants to avoid paying them. Both have a financial interest in us adopting their systems. IMHO when one eventually "wins" we can start supporting it then, before one of them pasts the post, it is premature. Simon
