Latest build still not saved, server not understanding
concept of tracks. My argument for paid data entry was
simply that If I upload all my data for free it
conflicts with my ability to be paid for that data in
my private possession. If it can be had for free as in
beer on OSM my private data looses commercial value. I
can add some interstates and a few towns for free, but
otherwise I might hold back the whole region,
provenance, etc. There was an argument for paid staff
previously that no one objected too (yet).
I agree that the data OSM distributes should be free
but as you know providing at what ever level has costs
and commercial developers will realise large savings
and profits by using that data.
I'm no consultant-freelancer, unfortunately.
