Hi folks,

Since last year I have been working with the Canadian Osm community to
have the entire Canadian 50K map content (Canvec product) available in
.osm format.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/CanVec

The product is now available and is being uploaded in osm database by
the Canadian community ...

http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=50.1841&lon=-66.4949&zoom=12&layers=M

The intermittent water  tagging schema used was this one
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Water_cover.

It was chosen with the community, mainly because it was very similar
to the original data schema (Canvec product) but also because the wiki
pages were saying that the proposal was still at Draft stage (not
deprecate).

Can we still have discussion about that and have it approved - even if
it is a bit late ?-)

Regards,

Daniel
