That's all well and good (I've been editing some of that wiki, so am aware of 
it!!) but all I see in this mailing list is quick discussions of comparisons, 
but no real conclusions. Also, why bother to spend the vast amount of time 
creating tiles if we're not gonna trace it? Street names we can just visually 
add by opening the tiff in an image viewer, so have we gone to fast by creating 
the tiles? Or was it all just to create pretty comparison pictures?

It's 5 days since the data came out (kinda) - am I being too impatient?

Hold your horses, please. See:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Ordnance_Survey_Opendata

for a summary of what's happened so far, what could happen and what
shouldn't happen. Everything's up for discussion, but there's a feeling
that if we just dive in straight away and start tracing/importing
willy-nilly we'll just shoot ourselves in the foot.
