Re: [talk-au] Extraction tools (Was: Re: Talk-au Digest, Vol 71, Issue 26)
Osmosis does most of the heavy lifting. It will filter planet files by just about anything. There is also a perl script Frederik Ramm wrote (in svn) that calculates way distances. I'd like to say I wrote some kind of gee-whiz script, but I just threw the right arguments and scripts in a pipeline. Ian.

Re: [talk-au] Newcastle Inner Bypass - Motorway or not ?
I just looked to see what Google and Whereis do. Whereis calls the Hume Highway the M31 throughout its length in NSW. Many of the actual 'A' sections are coloured as motorway. Google calls it the A31 to the border where it is actually the M31, but only seems to colour the actual RMS 'M' sections as motorways (even though it has the labelling wrong). I'd like to indicate freeway class sections as motorways, however, I can see the argument to just objectively use the RMS classifications. Will save edit wars down the track to just have one easy rule. Ian.

Any thoughts on whether the completed sections of the Newcastle Inner City Bypass (now being referred to by the RMS as A37 - Newcastle Outer Ring Road) should be classified as type Motorway …? If they're calling it A37 then they're not calling it a motorway.
