<div>Hi Walter, I did opensource the script I used to
generate the Surabaya boundaries that the HOT team needed,
and many other regions.</div>

<div>I also offered my experience help to the Indonesian HOT
team to do the carefully join of the boundaries with the
already existent neighbor boundaries (same way I did with
Jakarta project months ago), so Dewi can rely on me.</div>

<div class="gmail_quote">The problem at the moment in
Indonesia that the Gvt still hasn't provided in a compatible
license the open data of the rural/village(DESA) Shapefile
of the country(eventhough some NGOs and institutions are
pushing for it), so the good data is being uploaded only
with different agreements made by HOT with local provinces.

Yes, that is very important. But if OSM does not get the needed
rights, nothing may be imported.<br>
<br>
btw: how do you handle the outer edges of any area? <br>
