[Talk-GB] Adding buildings and addresses

[Dave F]

Sorry, I completely missed your reply.

The only OS layer, OS Streetview, which OSM can used is included as a 
baselayer in the main editors, but isn't being updated.

MasterMap isn't an OpenLayer.

OS's 'stance' will be "No."

I would like to work with a layer like that to be able to compare with aerial imagery.The community map of Welwyn Hatfield gives Ordnance Survey as the source. I have sent a request to OS if they'd be willing to share the data used for the community maps, because that will be a massive aid in my current mapping project.
