My Stance on the Call to Take Action and Confront Systemic Offensive Behavior, Priorities as a Candidate

Hi Logan, can you expand on those two points please ?

I will give this cause my ear and my voice, pursuing all potential remedies, including a potential restructuring of the board

It is my priority to harden the OSMF against a hostile takeover.

They seem contradictory to me. The Call To Action specifically ask to restrict Board seats for one group of the population, and only allow people from groups selected by organizations outside the OSMF to run on those seats. That sounds like a hostile (partial) takeover to me.

But I’m happy to be corrected if I didn’t understand that right. Thank you !

Sorry / Bad choice of words

I agree with you Smef09, the debate seems way too much heated to me, leading to a level disparing comments which I haven’t seen yet. Also most of those come from people “promoting inclusivity”.

Why WOMEN are pushing for a safe and inclusive space in OSM

@arnalielsewhere : One of the immediate change that this document calls is restricting Board Seats to persons based on discriminative traits : sex and country of origin.

Racism and sexism, and discriminative messages such as yours are rejected by a lot of people, so being wary of this document seems logical to me.

@᚛ᚏᚒᚐᚔᚏᚔᚋ᚜ 🏳️‍🌈 I can’t cite your offensive message, I’m refering to your first citation : I don’t think one should asume genders based on profile pictures. If they ask to be publicly identified as such (pronouns for example) then sure.

Do you think it would be inclusive and welcoming to tell that to transitionning people for example ?

The trouble with showing capacity tag on https://opencampingmap.org

I don’t think we should move away from capacity either, but adding maxtents, maxcaravans etc. like lyx suggested would be a good idea imo.

Also, please indicate the source in changeset tags instead of on each object. When an object has source=* it isn’t clear what data is covered by this tag.

Thank you for this comprehensive diary !

I agree with the sentiment that data should be mapped as best as possible w.r.t. the mapper ability and available sources. Quantity is not better than quality : as aeonesa pointed out most often error/imprecisions or lack of details get overlooked for a while once acceptable data is put in OSM.

Inscrire nom commercial sur la carte | comment faire ?

Bonjour et bienvenue sur OpenStreetMap,

Vous avez deux chemins possibles :

  • Créer une note avec toutes les informations de votre galerie (sa position, nom, numéro de téléphone, site web…) sur la carte afin que des contributeurs habitués à OpenStreetMap l’ajoutent

  • Modifier vous-même la carte avec l’éditeur.

Les deux approches sont décrites ici; la première est peut-être plus adaptée si vous ne souhaitez qu’ajouter votre galerie.

N’hésitez pas à répondre ici ou poser des questions sur le forum OpenStreetMap France

OSM the Legal Monster

Maybe (idk) the trademark policy is unenforcable in regard to the law for some cases, but all users are explicitely required to follow it :

  1. How to use the OSM marks Whenever you use the OSM marks, regardless of why you are allowed to use the marks, you must comply >with the requirements in this section.

2.1. Proper form You may: use the wordmarks as a proper name (e.g. “OpenStreetMap is great”) or as an adjective (e.g. “the >OpenStreetMap projects are awesome”).
