Indian districts tagging

Thank you jaisuvyas. I now remember seeing those posts, plainly it slipped by me. Sorry.

But I think my comment about consensus and discussion retains validity, given that this is a significant topic. Two points -

  1. Any discussion should be adequately wide, adequately publicised, and over sufficient time. There are three significant places for discussion, here in the forums, in the mailing list, and to a limited extent on the wiki page,. This seems to have been only discussed in the mailing list. There are a limited number of posts made over two days, (involving maybe five users?) and no follow up. It should have been noted and cross referenced in the forum and in the wiki discussion. I tend to look at the forums because it is the simplest to view and follow.

  2. When a major change such as this is being discussed, how the change is to be made should also be discussed and then followed through. Really the ones who proposed it have some responsibility to see it through. I don’t know what has been done to implement this, little as far as I can see after looking at some districts in KA, KE and AP which are still level 5. If district tagging has been changed elsewhere else it should be adequately documented so the progress of the revision can be tracked.
