We have a pretty good rule of thumb, which is "Can an independent mapper verify the information?". If there's no way of doing so without being let into the secret by some group of people, it's not verifiable. > if joe public wants > to put information in, then you need to find somewhere for them to put > it, not tell them to go away. Here's where we do fail. We shouldn't tell them to go away, but we should be better at telling them "Here's how you present your information based on OSM maps and data". Many questions about putting unsuitable data into the main OSM DB arise because there doesn't seem to be an easy way of producing overlays. -- Jonathan (Jonobennett) _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
