<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Ancillary data such as beer lists,
food, opening times etc, is probably valuable to CAMRA, but I
don't see it as relevant to OSM. These sort of things change so
often, it's out of date almost as soon as it's recorded. Just a
tag to their website is needed.<br>
<br>
However a list of just pub names & locations that could be
checked against OSM database would potentially benefit both
parities. Pubs that are only in OSM could be listed in What Pub as
a 'to do' so encourage CAMRA members to pay them a visit. <br>
<br>
I was trying to find out how many GB pubs/bars there were in OSM.
Didn't Taginfo used to have a option to just search the UK? It
appears to have been removed. Is there another way? <br>

<div>I did discuss this with the local CAMRA representative
responsible for the pub data, about 18 months ago. <br>

The data in WhatPub should essentially be regarded as a
commercial dataset which has value for CAMRA (for instance
in persuading people to join, or as base data for the Good
Beer Guide): they are unlikely to want to make it freely
available to OSM.<br>

On the other hand using an OSM base map ought to be a
reasonable thing to do.<br>

Considering CAMRA's What Pub? website is volunteer,
crowd sourced, I was mildly disappointed to see it
using Google maps. I've just this minute written an
email to them explaining some of the advantages of
using OSM. I thought if any actual CAMRA members
here could also chip in it might persuade them to
swap over. <a moz-do-not-send="true"

<br>
It might even be possible to share databases to
improve the quality of both.<br>
