After adding a school now a new OpenStreetMap edit window opens on the
location of the polygon.

I missed earlier emails on this subject but have had a quick play now.
Instructions seem very lacking. Why do I get the option to add an OS
OpenData polygon when the school is already mapped? That is likely to lead
to duplication.

Or is it just because I'm seeing live tiles but we’re using api06 data for
comparison?
When I clicked Add to OSM nothing seemed to happen, so I tried again. So I
added it twice:

Re: [Talk-GB] UK OSM final articles of association
Red text indicates the clauses that are part of the CIC text and we should keep them as is. Other bits have been kept as is too. Yes, that's right about the initial directors.

Re: [Talk-GB] UK OSM final articles of association
Hi Rob, Great news, it's good to see that things are becoming more and more concrete! May I ask, does the red text in the document indicate simply that they were the last changes made? Also - for initial directors, to remind folks, these are just in name only for a little while before the elections when they all resign and new ones are elected?

If you save the living environment, the biodiversity that we have left,
you will also automatically save the physical environment, too. But If
you only save the physical environment, you will ultimately lose both.
1) Don’t drive species to extinction
2) Don’t destroy a habitat that species rely on.
3) Don’t change the climate in ways that will result in the above.
