great page \o/

As a minor remark: "OpenStreetMap is 100% independent. It is not a Wikimedia Foundation project."

We are not any more 100% independent, for example the Italian chapter (?) of osmf is Wikimedia Italy, i.e. in Italy OSM is a wikimedia foundation project. But of course this doesn't mean that Wikipedia editing rules are applied to mapping.

Cheers,
Martin
