In fact, I quoted Imre's short essay on our community forum [1] in a discussion about trail_visibility that I slightly hijacked off-topic (and have since steered back on-topic) about European / German-speaking usage of the word "wasteland" (which my US-English ear finds somewhat harsh) versus my preferred word for these areas, which I and others might consider "wilderness." OSM is a global project (somewhat obviously, but apparently often forgotten or ignored). We do well to strive to understand, embrace and even celebrate cultural and language differences as part of our greatest strengths. Köszönök mindent, Imre.
