[Talk-ca] 2020 building import wiki comment by Nate Wessel

[john whelan]

I know of no other way to contact him but he made an interesting comment
that the project is on hold in the wiki pending review.

Would he care to comment on who is supposed to be reviewing the project?

My understanding is that the import was raised in talk-ca before it
commenced for comment and these were generally favourable.  I took that as
the local mappers to Canada had been consulted and they are the "local
mappers" authority in this case.

I understand he has concerns about local mappers making decisions but in
Canada we have been importing similar data through CANVEC for some time.
CANVEC data comes from a number of sources including municipal data.

Is he suggesting that each of the 3,700 municipalities in Canada should
form a group of local mappers who can make individual decisions on whether
their municipal data should be imported and we should end up with 3,700
import plans?

Thanks John
