Anonymous edits and anonymous accounts were permitted in OSM in the early days. Some of those objects still exist in the database. History tools will show those objects as user 0. JOSM shows them as <new object> iirc. The good news is that anonymous accounts are overwhelmingly agreeing to CT/ODbL, as are every other measurable group of OSM users. To preserve the anonymity of those accounts, the license status of those objects is published as a list of okay-changesets. This list is updated periodically, so anonymous objects take longer to appear as clean in the quick history service. _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
