Hi, list:<br>
<br>
The Uganda Bureau of Statistics has released health and educational<br>
facilities data for use in OSM under the ODbL license [1].<br>
<br>
This import is about the educational set (24,000+ nodes), and it would<br>
be done manually through the HOT Tasking Manager, in a similar way as<br>
with the Central African Rep. UNICEF data import (2012) and others that<br>
followed.<br>
<br>
The import has been communicated to the Uganda OSM community, and is<br>
being submitted here for final validation by the wider OSM community.<br>

Can you provide a link to the Ugandan discussion? It's also wrong to refer to this as a final validation - it's discussion just like needed to be done with the Ugandan community, and neither is more a final validation than the other.<span class=""><br>

You can find the import wiki here [2] and the more practical workflow<br>
wiki here [3]. Note that the workflow wiki is not finished, as it needs<br>
a few screenshots to be changed.<br>

Looking at the suggested changeset comment, you should not mandate a particular comment, but have users use a good changeset comment[1]. You've also listed the source tag twice.<br>
<br>
Past experience has shown that importing with a fixme doesn't work. They don't generally get fixed.<br>
<br>
Are users expected to make use of the information in the note tag and then remove it, so we won't see note tags in what is imported?<br>
<br>
The workflow mentions abbreviations. Are these common enough to be worth expanding in the conversion script?<br>
<br>
Can we see some sample data?<br>
