Hi Brain, - Do you have the OSM file for us to look at? Make sure it is not over-noded, JOSM validator is happy, etc. - Some of the USFWS NWR are not open to the public for hunting, hiking, etc. For example, http://www.fws.gov/refuges/profiles/index.cfm?id=53516 Which is a NWR, that also

Hi, Would anybody object to just killing the source tag, and putting it on the changeset like would be done if it was a current import. It would save 20 megs on the uncompressed MA snapshot. I 100% agree would be good to do, but did not propose this on the first go to avoid any controversy.

Hello Some general thoughts on building imports, since these two issues seem to keep coming up. For buildings, the long term maintenance plan is the same. Plan A, is that in N years time, the area has enough mappers that the data is being maintained like any other osm data. If Plan A, does not

Hi David, I am OK with whatever you decide on the tagging. This is an emerging feature in OSM. In a couple more years, when we have 100,000 charging stations mapped the tagging will work itself out. I just don't think an import should get ahead or deviate from what normal mapping practice is in
