[OSM-talk] Anonymous editing

Yay for 0.6 going live in March. Can we take this opportunity to finally disable anonymous editing? Potlatch has required non-anonymous editing since November 2007 (http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2007-November/020068.html ) to the grand total of precisely 0 complaints. If nothing

I don't think that the Pennine Bridleway is complete yet (they haven't decided where the northern part of the route will go). Where I have seen it signposted (from Derbyshire up towards Lancs) it seems to go in the same direction is the Pennine Way but runs on mostly separate bridleways. Thes
