Crossing ways are in no way checked by the server, so you should be able to upload data with as many crossing ways as you like and it should not complain. > In the past I have actually read the coordinates from the dialogue box > and manually entered them (I couldn't cut-and-paste: why not?) and found > errors that way, but it was impossibly slow and tedious. You're saying you got a dialogue box with an error message that contained coordinates? Totally news to me - next time this happens, can yo somehow make a screenshot or so?
