stations.
You have Police, Hospitals, Fast Food, Pu

Well I have got a few replies to my e-mails to a few places. One of
which was Avon[1] & Somerset Police.
If I was to gather a the lists of places that we should be making sure
are mapped onto the maps. Should I gather these up and put them into a
database for all to see/use. I have mySQL on my web

This is true. But it might also draw his attention to the problem and be
the end of the matter.

Hi,
One persons edits have created much talk as we are all worried about
damage to the work that has been put into the project, and rightly so.
When I started editing over a year ago I was worried (rightly on
occasion) that I was damaging rather than contributing, and this
actually made it harder

For the record: I agree with Peter that we need to undo this user's
changes, however it is done, and that it could cause large parts of East
Anglia to be wiped out if data that happened to have his name on were to
be removed because of the license process. We need a way to deal with this.
