Depends on how many mappers we have ;-) When we find out how to treble
the number of people mapping in the UK, most of our
external-dataset-needs would disappear. And in my area it looks like
of all the people who signed up and got as far as picking their home
location, less than a third have ever mapped...

I think we can divide things into "things that are actually impossible
for us to map" and "things that only seem impossible given the number
of mappers we have" and for the second lot (which includes field
boundaries) work on increasing the community rather than chasing
datasets.

Cheers,
Andy
