Hey Branko,

Congrats for the initiative! Personally I have nothing against.

Warm regards,

We are now in process of fixing geometries/conflating boundaries inside country, but while at it, we also want to fix/conflate boundaries between our countries. I learned in OSM Romanian Telegram channel that you also have government data[2][3]. Our data is here, as shp[4] and as .osm[5].

I am volunteering to do that, but I want to first see if there is any objection to my plan or some better proposals? Of course, it would be done manually, watching out for glued highways, national parks...
