Hi Would it be possible to have a version of the OSM licence change inspector which completely ignored tags of
maxspeed source:maxspeed maxspeed:source whether for addition deletion or modification. This could be just for Australia. The reason is that in Australia an anonymous user has used a bot to add the maxspeed values for residential roads that did not already have them (the vast majority). This user used its own account to do this and has declined the CT. The values are often wrong anyway and it will be benificial for the data quality when these are finally purged. Another (non anonymous) user has used his own account to run another bot to fix some maxspeed:source tags to source:maxspeed. This user is also a decliner. These values are also not usefull in the database. Howevewr while they are there the OSM inspoector is recording them as modifications that will degrade the data at licence change time and painting them yellow. With so many yelow lines on the Australia map due to these 3 tags it is impossible to tell which ways really need to be remapped to avoid unnecessary and damagining way revrsion. Once I have remapped all the "red" ways in areas that I have personally completely surveyed I would very much like to reclaim as much as possible "clean" mappers work from the real yellow roads before we lose that work. Nick PS -If a decliner has actually gone out and observerd the speed limit sign for an existing way edited by an acceptor, (very unlikely), then we would not be alerted to this. I don't see this as a problem.
