as a later optimisation we can always contract the bbox when the changeset is marked closed. > Then there's the question of reading a full changeset (i.e. with changed > objects) - should we have a call that gives you the before and after > state of each object? Would be very usable for change monitoring I guess. it would be nice to have a call on a changeset which returns a reversible diff. is it worth thinking about extending osmchange format so that modify elements contain both before and after elements? > I'm not sure about the reverse lookup we need or do not need - how can I > find out which changesets have affected Way #1234?

Or a new > /api/0.6/way/1234/changesets? all elements in the history should have a changeset_id attribute, right? cheers, matt _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
