I will not echo the plus side.

Only concern is the future - should there be any saperation. How will the situation be handle. Will they continue to have rights over our data? And to what extend. I hate to see hard work happily given to a third party. Like marraige of convineance ... ie to get married to another just to get PR into the country! Once PR approved - divorce. ... déjà vu.

I'm all for it!!! but I've got a questions.....

1) Will this new effort overload the mappers who will have to work on both the garmin & papago maps??? Will this then reduce the rate of maps update on the garmin version or cause a backlog to the updates posted by contributors?.

I ask this because there is only so much the mappers can do....... :(

Agreed bro alyem, we still have the best looking maps :thumbsup: with the most frequent updates. I'm sure MFM will still be miles ahead compared to the other "Mxx" where updates are concerned even if the rate slows down a little with additional workload to the mappers \:D/ =D> :thumbsup:

Thanks to all mappers ... :prayer:

badrol,

In a nutshell, we should cover our self with proprer pre-nuptial agreement first. Hope that answer your question.

As for workload, I belief this group belief in divide and conquer approach.

Lets go rock the boat.
