<p>Hi OSM US community,<br>
<br>
I don't know if it's enough to email here(so don't have to forward
to import list), but me and Zelonewolf(Brian Sperlongano) are
planning to import West Virginia State Forests. I'm doing the
paperwork, Brian the import.</p>
<p>The wikipage has been created for it here: <a
href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/West_Virginia_State_Forests_Import">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/West_Virginia_State_Forests_Import</a><br>
<br>
Since Jonathan Brier / wolfgang8741 contacted once WV GIS TC about
permission on using datasets from their website, he received the
following answer from Frank LaFone on behalf of Kurt Donaldson
stating <i>"Secondly, we'd love for any of our data to be put
into OpenStreet Map. Broadly speaking, unless it states
explicitly otherwise, all the datasets on our clearinghouse are
Public Domain datasets. We mostly deal in those datasets which
we can freely share with the public. That should be sufficient
for inclusion in OpenStreet Map." </i>This was originally meant
for trails, but as you can read, it's not only for that. So we
have the permission to use it.</p>
<p>If you have any objections, or questions, requests, feel free to
pose it.</p>
