And when the mission statement is "The world's best addressable map", don't you expect that people will feel the need to add more addresses, faster, in a shorter period of time ? BTW, I'm just an ordinary mapper without real vision of what OSM has to be. I'm happy to continue mapping the way I do now: surveys, because this means exploring the world around me. I don't need imports. It's just that when OSMF wants more imports (do they ?) they should support that process with the necessary tools, doing so would to improve the quality of the imports IMHO. regards m
