Kosovo gets geocoded as Serbia #169

Tracks like http://openstreetcam.org/details/1275821/0/track-info get geotagged as "Luan Haradinaj, Pristine, Serbia, RS".

Kosovo declared independence from Serbia 10 years ago. It is de facto completely autonomous, and its independence is recognised by many countries, accepted by others. People on the ground there would tell you that the country they live in is called Kosovo. OpenStreetMap has the country mapped as Kosovo.

Tracks taken in Kosovo should be geotagged as Kosovo.

(What geocoding source are you using to get results like this?)
