[OSM-talk-be] CRAB & OSM (again)

[Jo]

As I'm not capable to focus on one thing, I'll have to refrain from
participating if it is deemed necessary to create separate accountS.

That is accounts in plural. I would need one for UrbIS, one for De Lijn,
one for CRAB, one for Toerisme Vlaanderen, one for cycle node routes, one
for walking node routes, It goes without saying that when I happen to
wander into The Netherlands or France, I'll need many more accounts, of
course. Then when I decide to help out in New York or Spain, yet more
accounts.

How am I supposed to keep track of all those passwords? How am I supposed
to divide work on bus route relations from work on cycle route relations?
Why should it be necessary to be switching continuously between accounts?

A separate account for a completely automated dump of data into OSM makes
some sense. As soon as a human is involved who integrates the data
properly, it would cause an overhead I'm not capable of fulfilling.

So long and thanks for all the fish,

Jo
