It also gives as an example "More that 100 Features only if the extraction is non-systematic and clearly based on your own qualitative criteria for example an extract of all the the locations of restaurants you have visited for a personal map to share with friends or use the locations of a selection of historic buildings as an adjunct in a book you are writing, we would regard that as non Substantial."


If I recall correctly there is no definition what a feature is. Nobody has yet commented how they would interpret this for a border: is it about the border way or about the individual border points from which the border is made of? 

100 features may be a reasonable limit for point features, but for complex ways and relations, already very few (maybe even a single one) may be substantial?

Kathleen, I would be interested in your thoughts what a feature is in the context of ways.
