There's not one single solution.
The general problem is that "vandalism" is not the main problem. Most
of the problems are usually caused by people
What I like so far about this book over the other ones - that I have
not read, but I have seen their ToC - is the scope which is decidedly
more limited. That makes it a better guidebook for the aspiring mapper
than the other two that are undoubtedly more comprehensive, but for
that reason also less
It is not the price that matters, but the freedom to derive translations.
what good is a book that we cannot translate. Why would you ever
translate your book to some obscure language, and then who would print
it?

Jochen,
In regard to the other books already available:
- Had we known we were going to write a book, I might have thought twice
about creating a third one.
- Once we did know we were writing a book, we decided that having an open
source, low-cost alternative to the existing $40+ books was a go
I get this problem too, seems to stick completely even over a day or two
until I clear the relevant cached data. Then it seems to be ok for me. As
you say, seems to be a bigger issue at higher zoom.
Cheers

The book will never be finished. :-)
As I mentioned earlier we are happy to see further changes or suggestions
for more topics. It's very easy to publish another version for printing.

Thanks for the kind words, Martijn.
One of the questions we have yet to answer is how we should distribute the
books that Google bought for us. I would prefer to give them to people that
are a) likely to talk/blog about them (and thus OSM), b) not completely
aware of OSM, c) have limited internet

Great, absolutely great. I just ordered a hard copy but I see you have
a stash right there?! It would make an awesome welcome gift for new
OSM (-US) members. Welcome package: the book, an OSM surveying vest
and a list of 10 1-hour cleanup projects in your own area.

That would be great. I also saw that someone cloned it to do a French
translation.
