[OSM-talk] Tags created by presets - railway station

Hello, I don't know where to propose a CHANGE to existing preset. When a railway station preset is chosen, it creates only one tag for for a point: railway:station. I think it should also create a name: tag, as every railway station has a name... rmikke -- -- == Gardzi miodem - szalony!

Re: [OSM-legal-talk] PD vs SA: The eternal battle

Errr... Let's get back to our bus company? Of course they CAN use PD data from OSM, add their layer and publish it, not sharing their data... but that will cost them. Any change in the PD data requires repeating their work for them to be up to date. Whereas just putting their bus stops into OSM

Hey, didn't you think about the server's capacity and so on? detailed GIS data from every GSM company, huh? And from every network provider and so on? Where will you store it and for whom? It seems for me that storing rather huge amount of data for a very limited group of people is not exactly

Re: [OSM-talk] QA bots commenting on changesets - your thoughts?

On the other hand, if editing software checked for some particular software, the bot would have nothing to do. So, maybe the bot is a good temporary solution until the map editors have it implemented? Also, it would be a good way to detect edits with new software that hes no checking implemented.
