[HOT] FW: [Tagging] Friendliness with attacked mapped places in Paris

[Rod Bera]

Irrelevant.
OSM is a database, not a blog.

Moreover I quite doubt the source for changeset 35307155 can reasonably
be http://geoportail.wallonie.be, unless the recent events have this
property to blur geography as well as judgement.

Please keep mapping accurately and in a relevant way, even under such
circumstances.
