Team Approach
A mapper should choose a town and then import, in different steps all its data (toponyms, roads, buildings, addresses) to better harmonize the Province of Biella data into the OSM data.
A local mapper MUST choose the towns he knows best.
A shared spreadsheet tracks users working on town/data.
