Perhaps I'm not as much of an old-timer as you, but I wouldn't give a blanket advice against Potlatch, and certainly not in favour of JOSM, which is a usability nightmare - I only delve into it as a last resort, so haven't made my way up the learning curve recently, even though I used to use it for all my edits. Potlatch does most of what I want to do, and does it in the way I expect, give or take a few crazy keystrokes. As others have said, the problem with the Latitude/Longitude is probably down to the particular data in OSM for that area, which is going to be a problem whatever editor is used. s _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
