This means that the "import" account will agglomerate contributions sourced from the import (cleaned up building outlines, for instance) and a large number of ordinary, manual edits/improvements (improving the road network's geometric precision, adding tags) which are sourced from Bing, GPS traces, personal knowledge, etc. Individual changesets will be a mix of data from different sources, with different copyrights. Since there is no change to the clarity of copyright status, I really don't understand the point of a separate account for this type of import (obviously country-wide, mechanical CLC-type edits are different). -- Eric Marsden _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
