First of all - I appreciate the work behind the hardware and software support in OSMF. That is a huge bonus for me that in general I can focus on developing default style without special care for the infrastructure it will run on. Kudos for you all! I also absolutely don't mean this precise moment. Being system administrator myself, I can imagine how stressful and complicated that could be. I just thought that there could be some message after the solution has been selected and before the move has started. I try to warn my users beforehand when doing anything that could directly affect their work or if there's some risk involved. At least that's a Best Practice TM. :-) What I wanted to express was just a friendly moniker that OWG/EWG work is still not visible from my perspective (even if I'm an active member of OSM community) and that it could help to gain some people this way. Especially as this aim was explicitly stated by technical team (precisely I mean https://blog.gravitystorm.co.uk/2016/07/28/getting-involved-in-owg/ - BTW the same person that has successfully started and supported OSM Carto team building!). It's always hard to set the right priorities how much would one spend on communicating and finding new people versus doing actual work, but my experience is that it pays off to risk some evangelizing - now we have a team of active people in OSM Carto again, but it required putting some effort into making the style more available without clear outcome what exactly might work. And we still keep trying - see this fresh announcement: https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Tomasz_W/diary/44420 -- "My method is uncertain/ It's a mess but it's working" [F.
