I'm someone who reads the lists and see that Anthony says things which are patently untrue, or uses a tone of fact when it's just speculation, or just takes up a contrary position when there's no issue. >> And I'd consider that vandalism. > > I consider it improving osm by a human mapper according the spirit of the > project instead a container full of imports with not much value.

This doesn't improve anything, it just makes it harder to associate the data from the source. Also, in the case of image tracing, one is recommended to mention a source= tag. Not everyone does that all the time (I don't do it often, when I should), but the idea there is the same- to illustrate the data lineage. - Serge _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
