let me rewrite the piece from David Murn

 a big part of the discussion is the
way that we as a community are treated.  If SWG and OSMF feel they have
the power to do what they want without consulting the community, then
those handful of mappers should be the ones mapping and not be using the
efforts of the community they refuse to consult with.  Maybe SWG needs
to comprehend what the O in OSM means, it doesnt mean you make major
decisions behind closed doors, document them with a 3 word note in the
minutes and refuse to discuss with the community because it might cause
a big discussion, even aware that once the community becomes aware of
their change, a big discussion will ensue anyway.


This is constructive. It is hard hitting and direct. Sometimes medicine
is bitter.
