@simon @linuxfoundation No, ED = Every Door. iD was corporate-born. Half a million dollars. Not a miracle.

And it's absolutely not about opening their toolchains. It's that they had to create those toolchains in the first place.

Like, imagine a company creating a validation toolchain for Wikipedia. How and why and what for? For OSM, these questions have clear and immediate answers.

@zverik that comparison is, very, flawed as you know. Not only has the WMFs distribution model always been very different from OSMs, it has always been the major end user distribution point for its data, contrary to OSM.
