I noticed only after having posted my German commentary how hopelessly <br>
inapt various translation AIs are in dealing with my Germany style of <br>
writing. While it might seem this way it was not my intention to <br>
specifically make it difficult to translate.<br>
<br>
Ansonsten allen unterstützenden wie auch kritischen Kommentaren zu dem <br>
was ich geschrieben habe vielen Dank.<br>
<br>
And i want to specifically underline Frederik's suggestion to provide <br>
support for the DWG in their work to implement OSMF policy and defend <br>
the values of the project against attempts to politicize it.<br>
