You still don’t get it, do you? You’ve persuaded the other mappers to react with extreme negativity towards the Major Traffic Network when they might have taken it more seriously , because they associate it with your antics.

When youʼre in a hole stop digging.

Another thing you could try if there are separate entrances is to put addresses on each entrance, for instance https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/51.45291/-0.19706.

If you think mapping has been imported from Google, add a comment to the changeset asking about the origin and tell the Data Working Group.

I would agree that governance isn’t a matter that the EWG should be tackling but there may be issues more in the EWG’s remit that are relevant.

Perhaps it would be better for OSM to actively support the development of alternative general purpose map styles (an alternative being the iD option of changing the maintainer to someone more cooperative).

As a British mapper I’ve got into StreetComplete recently and I’ve found it something that I can use when I’m taking walks and also to fill in after tracing buildings from aerial imagery. I’ve come to share your enthusiasm.

Our virtual conference later this week has a talk about searching addresses. You can either watch live or a recording later if the time doesn’t suit you.

I wonder if the imagery change could be a bad move. JOSM’s whole imagery subsystem has a whiff of not-invented-here by some core developers; this reveals itself both in some quite unpleasant comments about other programs’ layer indexing but also in a clunky interface that makes it hard to get to non-internationally mainstream imagery when iD just pops up a menu of locally available choices and also renders zoomed-in imagery much more crudely when it does at all.

That is what I routinely do when I add websites displayed on shops, I also try to find the page for the branch.

If I have read this correctly vote 8 members are associate members and still have to become normal members in advance under vote 3.

Keep up the good work. Keeping existing mapping up to date and in good shape is a valuable part of OSM.

Every so often a community takes massive exception to what an online service does, in the last few months this has happened at Wikipedia (English), Stack Exchange, Blizzard and Gitlab. Often there has been a history of complants that wells up until the community hits breaking point.

You missed this one.

What time of day do they contribute? We may be able to guess their timezone that way.

The Slack page linked from the wiki isn’t publicly readable. Do you distinguish between permanent and temporary moves or whether HSTS is set?
