Re: [OSM-talk] Reports of FB problems to FB rather than to OSM (was: Attribution guideline status update)

Andy - what I meant was the hypothetical that Nuno suggested would be terrible. *If* the Facebook button created a note in OSM, then OSM *would* be inundated with 1000s of notes re nonactionable Facebook complaints. The fact that there are several hundred already *without* a button on Facebook's we

Not that I've heard (I don't think that was ever the case), but 1000s of notes about FB on OSM sounds terrible to me - they would only add noise for mappers who check notes for things to fix, and some editors show notes in the interface. My understanding is that FB *is* fixing whatever errors get r

Re: [OSM-talk] Tagging Governance

Thanks. BTW I'm not saying that it is always clear when a "good idea" is actually controversial or that you and Quincy are not subject to multiple forces pulling or pushing in opposite directions, but the only solution can be to escalate such issues to a wider audience before implementation, when

Re: [OSM-talk] Tagging Governance

Roland I can't help noticing that you are tiptoeing a bit around the actual issue which started the whole discussion: unilateral changes by the iD maintainers (everybody else doesn't have enough leverage to enforce their position, so it is not me specifically picking on them, it is simply a conseq

Re: [OSM-talk] Tagging Governance

If the discussion takes place in a mailing list there is a record of it. Slack is restricted and I'm not certain if a record is available. Same for chat or mumble discussions. Both are valuable but not for formally recording why a decision was made and the reasons behind it. Cheerio John On Tu

Re: [OSM-talk] Tagging Governance
