Perhaps, but it will take them at least six months to do this (I believe the OS Locator data is updated on that schedule), and probably longer. In the meantime we'd like to get on with adding the missing streets and names. I expect we all agree that while standardizing apostrophes, Saint/St, and so on between OS and OSM may be a worthwhile goal, it is a much lower priority than completing the map. So for now it would help us more to ignore such discrepancies in the Locator-comparison tiles. It might however be worth making a separate 'pedantic' version of the tiles in which every small difference is highlighted. -- Ed Avis <e...@waniasset.com> _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
