Oooof!  Please!  The great advantage to the maps is that they're
distributed in a way that allows a site to maintain the maps
*automatically*.  For those of us who really aren't allowed to spend
the time to read and edit in zillions of small changes each month, the
automatic distribution is a godsend.

On the other hand, if someone wants to work out a reasonable system
where the changes are applied to the site's maps automatically, I'm
all for it.
