<p>Thank you everyone for the detailed answer. <br>
</p>
<p>As it seems it is the general consensus, I'm putting the feature
on hold until we are able to distinguish tree from other plants
and propose the feature only for tree (in coordination with a OSM
editor), probably until next year. <br>

<p>Take care</p>

My response here is to the part of your question that should
have been
on talk@; it's not so much about mechanics and the API but
"should you"?
I am a bit skeptical of the wisdom of this endeavor. I recommend
that
you think hard about the relationship between: your subcommunity
wanting to publish data of particular interest to them the costs
and benefits to the broader OSM community
So I would ask: do you think the data to be added would be
viewed as
generally useful to others? </div>

<div id="mail-editor-reference-message-container" dir="auto">Adding
individual plants (other than trees) could easily cross into an
overwhelming amount of data.<br>
