None that I am aware of. Frankly, I'm not even sad about this, I believe any kind of server-side validation would be * a lot of work to implement * slowing down API requests * hard to maintain while any kind of client-side validation would just lead to "hey, the server issues invalid XML!" - "then fix your definition of 'invalid'". But you're welcome to support patches to the rails API and the clients and promise to keep them up to date ;-) Bye Frederik _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
