2009/8/27 <lulu-...@gmx.de>: > You said yourself it was a proposal. It was not a formal proposal as defined in: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features because the text there states: "This page is for newly proposed features to be added to the map features page. " which is not applying to my edit. Please also note this paragraph in here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Creating_a_proposal "OSM was created out of a desire to change things, to break the status quo; this principle should be kept in mind when creating tags as well. "
I'm really concerned that OSM is going to wikipedia-like structures with an overhead of formal requirements that IMHO will harm the project. > You made a change after a discussion with 8 persons and not all did agree. > This is far below the limit for a proposal voting to become approved. 1) there is no procedure to vote upon an edit like mine (see the guidelines linked above, that don't reflect your point of view) 2) I guess you did not see all of the discussion. I'm leaving out national lists and refer just to talk: I count: Greg Troxel John Smith Christiaan Welvaart James Stewart Emilie Laffray Liz James Livingston Pieren Roy Wallace David Lynch Elena of Valhalla Richard Mann Alex Mauer Apollinaris Schoell Lester Caine Eugene Alvin Villar Martin Simon Dermot McNally didn't count them, but it looks more than 8. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
