An important reason against anonymous edits is accountability. We want
to be able to contact someone and ask them: Why did you add that? What
did you mean by

Hello!
After days of surfing in the internet I couldn't find for MySQL any tool
similar to osm2pgsql for Postgres. All I want to do is to visualize the OSM
data for Germany on GeoServer with MySQL DB. The tools I found like Osmosis
and osm2sql save the data in a non-spatial schema, that's why G

If someone turns out to be a troll, repeatedly and deliberately posting
false information, how would they be blocked? Would the Twitter scraper
program need to be the step doing the blocking, since all changes to the OSM
database would go in under the same user ID?

I think that's a great idea! However I don't believe it should be
directly added to the OSM database, since the POI may already exist,
or there could be other problems. Instead why not create an .osm file
and allow others to add/merge it to OSM using tools like JOSM? An even
better idea might be to

Hi all,
Consider the following application scheme:
* a twitter user sends a geo-located tweet containing a specified
hashtag, say #addosm and key-value pairs like "amenity:pub;name:Red
Devil;smoking:yes"
* a twitter scraper picks up the tweet, archives it and posts a new
point using the twitter co
True, but it might well derail a locomotive in the winter. I once saw a
locomotive derailed by mud that had flowed across the track, then frozen..
Fortunately, the locomotive was moving slowly enough that it didn't cause a
catastrophic accident.

Ben - you end up with one of three things:
highway=track+tracktype=whatever+designation=public_footpath (or whatever)
highway=track+tracktype=whatever
highway=track+access=private
If it's got a simple private / keep out sign, then use access=private.
This renders.
Anything else, you can probably

I'd use a length of either railway=disused or railway=abandoned.
IMX it only takes a year or so for a disused railway, often called OOU in
the UK ("out of use"), to become unsuitable for trains to "turn up and go".

Unless you operate to peculiar safety standards, there'll probably be
a stop sign on the track some way either side of the former
crossing(probably set for the stopping distance of the heaviest train
operating at linespeed, and taking the gradient into account - which
could easily be a mile away).
