GDPR follow up
We received a reply from Mikel with the materials produced by the board:
- https://blog.openstreetmap.org/2018/11/03/rfq-changes_to_rails_api_and_cgimap/
- https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/GDPR/Affected_Services
- https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/images/8/88/GDPR_Position_Paper.pdf
There are three different sub-projects:
- Rails Port only changes
- Rails Port and CGImap in sync changes
- planet tools, including telling the mappers a paradigm of what is happening to their data
Roland will scan for those items that affect Rails Port only. Goal: make a project description from that.
It is decided that we will turn one of these into a project in January.
Discuss website redesign issue

It was felt that the scope of this is too large to be addressed at this time.

Other options:

- dump the data, Noop?
Roland will write a note to Tom about this.
