I hesitate to say what is relevant to OpenStreetMap.  For example many 
trees are mapped but locally we lost about a quarter of them in a recent 
storm.  Is mapping all the trees in Canada relevant to OpenStreetMap?  
Keeping the number of trees up to date or even shop opening hours for 
that matter is a problem.
