Dear all,
I’m already some years member in OSM, also in OSMF.
I watch project OSM from the beginning.
Today I read one interesting discussion in german forum.
( https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=59268 )
That´s true, we have still a lot of open topics and I believe, only OSMF can act.
Especially mapping standards and guidelines and wiki are often not clear.
Therefore we have edit wars and some mapper they quit their work in OSM.
I was pretty shocked to see user who deleted 41135 861 points in the map.
This is wasted time and can happens only, when more exactly standards doesn´t exist…
To be more exactly:
We need guidelines for mapping of areas, we should finally change old artefacts like e.g. landuse=grass.
The OSMF or more exactly DWG can say: It´s not our job.
But who can do it when they don´t do?
We need probably an new working group for realize it, I would say:
Standard Working Group
