<div dir="ltr"><div><div>All,<br><br></div>The Advisory Board has now published this [1]. We have already had one person respond in a way that makes it appear like it is a vote between the two documents. May I re-iterate that this on it's own is not helpful. The aim is to gather discussion responses that can aid further the OSMF designed process. Therefore if you do comment then please provide some context. This way the DWG and/or OSMF board can fully consider your comments during the next stage of agreeing a policy. In dev terminology "pull request" type comments on either documents are also good here.<br><br>[1] <a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/osmf-talk/2017-December/004865.html">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/osmf-talk/2017-December/004865.html</a><br><br></div>Thank you,<br clear="all"><div class="gmail_extra"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255)"><b>Rob</b></span><br></div></div></div></div></div>

As you may or may not be aware the OSMF have tasked the Data Working Group (DWG) with writing a policy for organised editing. The Advisory Board (AB) pulled our thoughts together way back in October but because we are a relatively new group (had our first phone meeting last week) we didn't get it across the line in time to feed in to the DWGs work. Despite this, it looks like the AB will go ahead and share its proposal/thought/guidelines in the coming days. This could appear to be quite jarring with the DWG but we have the same aim (i.e. to make OSM better) so hopefully it will spark some useful discussion.<br><br></div>Disclosure 1: I am a AB member and fed in to the text in October.<br></div>Disclosure 2: There is a link via the OSMF board between the DWG and the AB so the AB's work _may_ have fed in to the DWGs but neither party officially spoke. As noted this is due to the fact that AB is relatively new rather than any desire to undermine each other.<br><div><div><div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,<br clear="all"></div><div><div><div><div class="m_2711257225122033304gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255)"><b>Rob</b></span><br></div></div></div></div></div><div><div class="h5">

Over on the talk-gb mailing list there has been a lot of discussion about how best to add third party Shell petrol station data to OSM. Based on your feedback Ilya has developed a <a href="https://osmuk.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ee17e966ef004aa61be763270&id=056f89bf21&e=af3cfa8132" style="color:rgb(0,173,216);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">Community Validation tool</a>.

Rob has now taken his seat on OSMF's <a href="https://osmuk.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ee17e966ef004aa61be763270&id=fc779d5261&e=af3cfa8132" style="color:rgb(0,173,216);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">Advisory Board</a> which currently includes 5 corporate members and 5 local chapter representatives. Although relatively new the <a href="https://osmuk.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ee17e966ef004aa61be763270&id=fd9df5387a&e=af3cfa8132" style="color:rgb(0,173,216);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">proposed Directed Editing Policy</a> has given us something to discuss. We drafted a proposal based on the groups experience way back in October but didn't manage to share it in time.<br>
<br>
Despite the bad timing the group is likely to publish its guideline. The hope is to continue the discussion around organised editing with the goal of eventually converging on a common set of best practices. Once published it would be good to do a compare and contrast - for example, how do they effect you?
