Point taken. We will update the wiki and run through issues with the Auckland 
dataset. No more imports until then.

Hang on. I (and as far as I know the others involved) have never made any jibes 
about you personally. As I have pointed out previously you have and continue to 
be a super valuable member of the OSM community. In fact one of, if not the top 
contributor. Our work together dates back to March 2010 and I’m not sure why 
all of a sudden there has been a change of heart. We would love to catch up and 
discuss concerns in person so we can get to the bottom of any issues. The 
invitation is out there, happy to discuss off the Google Group on any other 
list.

Cheers
Glen
