Anyone know what that fosm.org site is all about? I can't find any reason for it to exist other than as a mirror of OSM or just to obfuscate things. Same licensing, same data. But then in the single blog post they claim they have more data and overall better statistics. Plus they mention comparing the decrease in contributors to OSM with any increase in contributions to fosm.
Maybe just the lack of info throwing me off, but it sounds like there is some malicious intent going on there. I just noticed the dates of 2011. Was this maybe a parallel start up to OSM that didn't?
