 Subject: [Talk-ca] GeoBase tags
 
 Hello:
 
   Are the Geobase attribution tags relevant, should I leave them in
 or strip them out?

There's no legal reason why you can't remove the attribution=* tags (or any 
tag, for that matter).

My practice is to remove them when the source=* tag indicates that the source 
is geobase and I'm editing the way anyways. There may be other import cruft 
that you want to strip out at the same time.

Maybe it would make sense to come up with a consensus of which tags
can be stripped. I know that for the US TIGER data JOSM automatically
removes the cruft when you edit a way, and we should have this for
Geobase/Canvec, too.

Personally, I haven't imported anything with a geobase tag, but I will remove 
them if I edit a feature with one. Do they serve any purpose during the import 
process?

 Just my two cents...

Well, actually it appears JOSM is already doing what I proposed:
http://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/7915

I'm not opposed to a bot but someone has to create it. That's certainly not me.

Cheers,
 Harald.
