<div dir="ltr">It was an example of "organised editing". If a "local group" invites newbies/other people to edit a specific thing (sidewalks, buildings, roads etc) does that policy cover them as well or are they counted more as "normal mapping"? One could argue that: "We define other<br>
organised mapping (or editing) as any editing that is also steered by a third party, but where no money is paid.". A local group could tell the group what and how to map as much as a outside company could do the same. I'm asking where do you draw the line on who is an organised mapper vs normal mapper(to which the new policy wouldn't apply)<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Sep 20, 2017 at 7:46 AM, Christoph Hormann <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:osm@imagico.de" target="_blank">osm@imagico.de</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><span class="">On Wednesday 20 September 2017, James wrote:<br>

</span>I think you are misunderstanding the idea of the survey here - this is<br>
not a vote on a regulation of organized editing, it is meant to gather<br>
opinions of OSM community members on the matter. Classifying organized<br>
editing activities in a fine grained way would be beyond the scope of<br>
such a simple exploratory survey.<br>
<br>
You can be sure the DWG knows that there is a broad range of organized<br>
editing activities and that even within the definitions given for the<br>
survey there is room for interpretation.<br>
