Producing a validated OSM dataset

[CjMalone]

@SimonPoole

double effort, OM, Facebook and co can afford spending the money on staff in -choose you fav low pay economy- to fix issues both in the validated dataset and then go back and fix them in the source, it is unrealistic to expect the OSMF to be able to do something similar, we really only want to fix something once.

I don’t think that’s how Daylight works. As far as I know, they fix it in OSM and cherry pick the changeset(s) into the release.

EDIT: sources to support:

The Daylight Map Distribution

And slide 4 “Fix: Submit fixes on live OSM, not in an internal database”
