and once using the administrative boundary multipolygon relation. I'm
guessing the nodes exist because some tools don't know how to deal with

Just to be clear, I am not suggesting that Microsoft, Cloudmade or anybody else
should attempt to control the OSM project. ('anybody else' is quite broadly
defined in this case)
But I think it would be great at least to know what are the missing features and
data that these users of OSM would lik

Hrm.
I think we should have some kind of idea of what we're trying to accomplish.
There are a bunch of companies interested in OSM, and it might be nice for them
to talk. I suspect it's about as simple as that? But we don't want to do that
and exclude anyone else, so it should be free for anyon

Hey Peter and Emilie:
Totally agree - hence the reason to have an unconference. The important part of
this conference would be the back and forth as we try to find the place where
we both can get value. I think everyone who wrote the original letter is very
sensitive to the claims of any company

Instead of "South Pole" at 0,0 can we have something like "You are here" or
"You are lost".
"Great adventures start here", "Did you mess up coding?".
Hmm too many possibilities, maybe we would have to put it to a wiki vote.
