Oh, hi! I was just trying to figure out why there was suddenly a bunch of data source suggestions.

Is it "dead"? Hmm. It's complicated. It's true the data hasn't been updated in a long time. The biggest issue is that most of the data sources that were present on OpenTrees are no longer online.

So if I do a fresh harvest and rebuild, a lot of that data will disappear, which is a bit sad.

I'm in two minds about what to do, and have been for a long time.

So, it's not "dead", it's just very indecisive.

Ah yeah, that's a tough position to be in. Perhaps keep the old data but flag it as stale somehow?

Could also be cool to try to somehow load some of this data into OpenStreetMap -- then if the sources go away, local mappers can potentially pick up the torch.
