Because iD discards all of its data on save and reloads new data from the API if you have your users save frequently it will also get them refreshing their local data frequently, significantly cutting down on conflicts. If you're in a limited bandwidth situation I wouldn't worry about the increased bandwidth usage because the map data comes compressed and even when loading a dense urban area only about 25% of the bandwidth is used for map data, the remainder mainly being used by aerial imagery. _______________________________________________ HOT mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
