I’m glad to make you happy, really. Can you discrad changes you did to the area? Because otherwise I’ll have to do it manually.

No, it won’t be ideal to do like in Belarus. Here we use two different languages. Most of the people, who will use OSM in the mountains used to speak Russian. All the names of the objects (mountains, glaciers, valleys etc) also called in Russian. It’s sort of tradition.

Latin version of Kazakh characters is settled down already, but still have no use. And it won’t for a while.

If you want to help tourists, who can’t read Cyrillic alphabet—use English, it works just great.

3) I can’t speak of whole country or big chunks of it, but in the mountains we still use lots of old names. And they are on OSM, as comutity do not accept those changes.

Unfortunately I won’t be able to help with general map. My interests are limited to the mountains, and I’m trying to keep this area well maintained, clean and up to date.
