is much better than this negative method. Sure it is helpful to
discuss problems somewhere but I think calling it the Worst of OSM is
unfair. If the map is never done then isn't everything technically

Calling Worst of OSM is because there is the http://bestofosm.org/ website
and the opportunity for parody, but I can see that will have the danger of
Hi!
For parody it has quite a attacking tone.
But I was forgot about Best Of OSM. Looks nice, needs some additions for
my country, but it's something I can show when someone asks what OSM can
provide.

The problem with the spanish place names is not that there are no roads
