[OSM-talk-be] Arrondissement Verviers boundary

[Jo]

All I know is that he is largely ignored on talk-fr. So I don't think
anybody knows how to handle him. My impression is that he became a little
bit less verbose, but not by much.

If it gets to the point where it starts looking like an edit war, we could
always ask pnorman to warn and subsequently block him for a while. Putting
names on boundaries has been discussed on talk-fr, or was it talk? But I
only followed the discussion tangentially. If we decide we don't  want to
do that in Belgium, then he'll have to live by that rule.
