Ehud, we appreciate the extra effort to communicate. It makes a big difference.

Ehud, thanks. Not sure from your post whether we should be seeing new city polygons already or not. I'm not (London, UK).

davipt, I remember I owe you some answers about the driving instructions issues. Once we finish the migration and run a couple of cycles we will look into these issues.

Ehud
That's excellent, thanks again.

You know what, I don't know how to say it without getting reported for abusive language. An "official announcement" that doesn't arrive days after something has happened with no mention of how badly things were screwed up would be &*^$*(£(&(£ amazing.
Iain, the final lesson.

Thanks for the update, Ehud.

Sorry to sound like a broken record but can you define "soon"? This week? This month? This year?

Regarding daily updates... this scares me a little. I need to see far greater WME stability first. I disconnected major roundabout in my area last week then WME went down and it was 3 days before could fix it.

Communication, thanks for acknowledging, but this is not new, it's the one complaint that's remained consistent for the last 3 years.

Overall rhetoric is good, but we need to start seeing delivery of the promises.

It's holiday season in Israel at the moment, or has been recently. We should see some improvement going forward. I hope.

Tomton owns TeleAtlas.

There are two big players in the market (jet), TeleAtlas and Navteq (TomTom and Nokia).

This to gigants serve the nav systems with data.

For big countries they made their own map, in smaller (less important) countries, where are a local map data provider, their bought the map source an the updates.

Google started to prepare his own service, but it is not jet used.

Then comes the frre mapping services, like OSM.

And now comes Waze, too.

So if You check the main online map providers, You will see usually this two type of maps, but not all have the new, updated data resource.

Google's own maps are used in a number of areas, anywhere where Google MapMaker works! You can see the source in the lower right corner of maps.google.com for your current view

Thanks Ehud, sounds promising. I'll be more than happy with twice-weekly and predictable updates!
