Agreed, this is not how things should be done. Note Nakaner is not a local mapper here nor does he - to my knowledge - routinely map in this area. Note within the Canadian community there is a significant bandwidth of opinions regarding the Canvec imports and also significant voices that want to stop them and even remove significant parts of the Canvec data again. Still this is ultimately the decisions of the Canadian community, even if - to quote myself - it is worth considering if "someone sitting in Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver [is] really more of a local mapper on Devon Island or Ellesmere Island than someone from Britain, Germany or Russia?" -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/ _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
