Not quite - this is just a collection of statements regarding matters where you claim i did not provide answers to or where you repeatedly bring up arguments based on assumptions that have been refuted in the past already (like the persistent idea that any two-dimensional entity should best be modeled in OSM with a polygon). It is neither meant to be an exhaustive framework of principles nor are they necessarily useful as practical rules. All of these are not new statements - they are not literal quotes but i have made them in previous discussions in similar form (here, on the wiki, on github or elsewhere). You have stated disagreement with several of these statements but you have not challenged them in any way by pointing out a logical error or by arguing why the suggested approach how mappers should decide on how to map things is of disadvantage to them or to the project as a whole. With challenging my statements i mean providing evidence for them to be false. I would suggest to you not to concentrate on your spontaneous emotional reaction of dislike to views like mine that differ from your own but to consider what objective arguments you have that support your position and what long term consequences this would have. You have made clear on a lot of occasions that you reject the concept of verifiability as a guiding principle for mapping decisions but so far the only reason for this you have ever given is essentially because it is inconvenient and it prevents the addition of data to OSM you would like to see added. Given that the reasons why we have and should keep the verifiability principle have been discussed really extensively this all seems frankly a bit opportunistic. -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/
