looking at a map where Crimea is part of Ukraine may lead people to plan a trip to it, only to be stopped and possibly questioned. Most importantly, however, having Crimea as part of Ukraine on a map that shows what's on the ground would lead people to think that the illegal invasion has been resolved and everything is back to normal. This, if I understand correctly, would be exactly the opposite of what you want. -- Elena ``of Valhalla'' _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
