If you haven't seen it yet, good news! OSMF has indeed pushed the database rebuild back a couple of days to begin on April 1st, instead of the slightly insane (IMO) attempt to finish by April 1st. http://blog.osmfoundation.org/2012/03/27/service-schedule-march-april-2012/
After the last thread I started about remapping, I decided to give priority to making sure all major borders in the US are license clean. I figured these are important features for things like geocoding and are prominent on most rendered maps but a lot of mappers may not have the tools or experience to work with such large objects. In case you're curious, this is what all members of county border relations with a nist:state_fips tag looks like, loaded into JOSM... :) (yes some states are missing. This was just an easy jxapi query to get a majority of them): http://i.imgur.com/tq9uw.jpg Tonight I finished all of the state borders and in doing so I also cleaned the US border. I have most of the county borders too although I did just find a little more work to do on those. I have noticed a number of people working on license remapping in my live edit viewer. So that's all good. But we still have a long way to go. I've seen a little work being done on interstates but so far it's been a drop in the bucket. I also saw a major edit on the coastline around the great lakes tonight. But the west coast is still in bad shape. So thanks to everyone who is helping. Let's keep it up until the database goes down this weekend!
