I'd like to be reassured that any effort I put into mapping will be useful, ie we'll have a useful map at the end, not a blank page with two footpaths on it. Have a look around Turkey Street Station in Enfield sometime in North London where I understand Steve C has done a lot of mapping and you are literally reduced to a couple of footpaths.
I really hate being told what to do and I think a good many others do to. As far as I am aware mappers do not report to a CEO who has the power to sack them thus losing their source of income. I think we have to engage with mappers and better explain what the advantages are of the changes and what the plan is to move forward so there is a usable map available at all times. We need to get them on side not berate them.
