[OSM-talk] OSM : It's a shame !!!

[john whelan]

I was under the impression that OSM is riddled with data that is not .odbl
compliant.  In some of my personal mapping my sources may not have been
fully personal observation which is more or less what I understand .odbl
requirements to be which is why I requested my contributions be deleted
since I couldn't remember absolutely which were which.  My more recent
updates are .odbl compliant.

The CANVEC imports I did could be quickly redone.  In fact I note that some
bright spark has been reimporting CANVEC 7 information over CANVEC 6 so
suddenly there are lots of duplicates that the bots don't pick up because
the source is different.
