I wonder if this has taken effect yet? It's not reflected in OSM 
currently. I think I'll leave it for the local communities to action.


For those interested, and especially for the Dutch and Belgian (Flemish) 
communities: here is an article in Dutch:

http://www.rtlnieuws.nl/nieuws/binnenland/een-stukje-belgie-straks-van-nederland-en-dat-zonder-bloedvergieten

Note that the swap is located on the (very small) boundary between the 
Netherlands and Wallonia, not Flandres, but the article posted by Steve 
is in French already.


It appears that the swap hasn't occurred yet, but is slated for later 
this year. The article doesn't mention a date however.


I've contacted "our" (Dutch) guy already, who is responsible for 
maintaining administrative boundaries in the Netherlands.


Regards,

Frank

Hi Steve, 

It's all under control with the local NL/BE communities. The decision
still needs to be ratified by the various parliaments before it takes
effect; that is expected to happen sometime this year.

This is also discussed on the forum at:
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=53204

AFAIK the politicians have not voted to approve the change yet, which 
makes is premature to adopt the change in OSM.


On the Dutch side I'll adopt this change when it has been included in 
the updated settlement (woonplaats) boundary for Eijsden.


Kind Regards,

Bas

No, the border does not have to be changed yet, although there seems
to be an agreement between both governments

We'll take care of it, when it's ratified. It still needs to be discussed
by both governments before it becomes official.
