hi david, i'm an NZ mapper, and involved with the LINZ import process. the line we are going with around the import is to encourage mappers to do their own mapping anyway - the LINZ import will be some time, plus there are mistakes in the data which will need correcting manually, and there is greater value in individuals collecting data than relying on the government. so, map away - your work will not be deleted, we will work round it. if you'd like to know more, join us on the nzopengis group - https://groups.google.com/group/nzopengis -- robin http://tangleball.org.nz/ - Auckland's Creative Space http://bumblepuppy.org/blog/ _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
