True, that's an issue as well, but I'm thinking of the simplest mapping possible, just one to one (by default at least). Plenty of non-OSM data sources need cleaning up as well, so I don't see that as a specific issue with OSM data. Again, if someone wants more control, they can use other tools like Osmium. -Josh _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
