Yup, your also part of the OpenStreetMap Community :-)
With thanks to Natural Resources Canada, and Land Information Ontario... All trails which are in these 2 databases will make their way into OpenStreetMap Database. ... they do not get 'dropped in' or 'injected into the map' (Like CommonMap Does) .. but rather, it gets used as a tool to be slowely placed into the database, manually. ... and exact source attribution and tags like 'reference ID number' do not get added, because other sources of trail collecting are used. These sources have a higher 'importance value' than the 2 governments data. .... Me, along with a whole bunch of others, are waiting for OpenStreetMap licence to officially change over. Richard, would it be appropriate to direct 'outsiders' like me, over to CommonMap's 'community'? That way, discussions will remain on topic.
