If people want to create data that's not particularly useful, that's up to them. As you see, the server has no qualms about spaces in tags (either key or value), and neither should clients have such issues with them. > A second question about ways/relations with less than two nodes/members: > Is there any reason for these?

Otoh, it may be user error, intending to delete the way but not doing so. -- Regards, Thomas Wood (Edgemaster) _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
