This "self appointed police of OSM" will probably question

- how did they geocode the POIs, using Google's geocoder ? (a big no-no)

GerdP has written me twice about some tagging mistake I made. In one case I
told him about a proposal he was not aware of, and he promptly reverted the
change he had made in the meantime. In both cases we had a nice
conversation via the changeset comments.
Perhaps he did not contact the mapper tha
