Since the changeset only contains creations, the easiest way I found to revert those is manually: * download the changeset xml (wget http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/changeset/1980698/download ...) * replace occurrences of "create" with "delete" (in vim :%s/create/delete/) * upload resulting changeset, you can use the upload script at http://www.openstreetmap.pl/balrog/bulkupload/upload.py for that (./upload.py newchangeset.osc) Similarly deletions can be reverted easily, only modifications need looking up the node history like revert.pl does.
