A good general principle: we should always optimise for ease of mapping. If we produce a wonderful world map but developers have to jump through a few hoops to use it, a) we have a wonderful world map, therefore b) people will - and are doing - produce the tools that jump through the hoops. If we make it unnecessarily complicated to add data (and that includes using jargon words like "true" when "yes" is obvious) then we don't get the mappers, so we don't get the wonderful world map. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/oneway-yes-or-true-tp22242216p22247133.html Sent from the OpenStreetMap - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
