[Talk-us-massachusetts] automated edits and massgis tags

[Jason Remillard]

Hi Greg,

If Mateusz has good scripts written and debugged to remove tags in
bulk and is willing to run the automated edit, I would be happy to
support him.

Removing the tags listed in Mateusz email would improve OSM.

massgis:BASE_MAP
massgis:DCAM_ID

In fact, I would support removing virtually all of the massgis: tags.
