[OSM-talk] Komuna e Malishevës, Serbia ?

[RB]

Well, personally, I don't really care, but saying than Malishevo is located
in Serbia is certainly not less accurate than saying than it sits in
Kosovo, since most of the world countries don't recognize Kosovo as a
sovereign country. To be exact, it should be possible to say that it is in
both countries.
