Not a reference, but there has been discussion over actions in the Cyprus area of the map and similar problems elsewhere. I think the 'discussion with editors' approach has been working in Cyprus ( although I stand to be corrected ? ) as there is no way of blocking problem editing. Even when it's accidental. Rolling back inappropriate changes has been done, but the persuasion of editors to 'play within the rules' is the best way forward in the absence of being ABLE to block editing of areas except by approved editors. I think need to 'legislate' in software has been avoided to far, but if other 'politically sensitive' areas need help - that may need reviewing again? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/lsces/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
