Tagging name=[PAVED,UNPAVED] is suboptimal, yes. On the other hand, these edits are a couple of years old, from a mapper who had been mapping for about a month at the time. And who mapped from their own survey and gps trackfiles. This mapper was doing just about everything right, with their heart clearly in the right place. No - his ways are parallel to the actual paved and unpaved roads. They were added solely to make the words render. (The road is from the 2007 TIGER import.) I'm not judging him; I just find it amusing. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

[OSM-talk] Happy SysAdmin Day
Happy SysAdmin Day to all of the System Administrators on the list. And especially to our very own admins for OpenStreetMap. To all of you who keep our servers running, and lug them through the underground, to the folks who maintain the services that we rely upon and enjoy, to the cartographers who maintain our stylesheets and rendering. Thank you. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] Commenting and thumbs up/down feature for changesets

In your given example this would not be needed, but I happen to see also very big changesets with hundreds of single actions in them. The simplest solution might be to appeal to the mappers to structure their uploads in a way that they contain only actions for one "task"/one kind of edit and they all adhere ;-) cheers, Martin ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
