Whats the standard rule? Every 10mins? Or will josm accept any size,
it would just take longer?

Is there a max default/timeout that JOSM squaks at?

I'm trying to get a definative answer for all the tags.
So far so good. :-)

Any comments about the other tags, why they should be removed or kept?

It looks like an attempt at making a relation for the highway.
Which it probably should be. Should it? As i recall there was a
recommendation for people not to be joining up the ways, just for the sake
of joining them. But it never got materialized to the geobase2osm wiki page

It's

Hi all,
i am wondering what you all think about me adding wikipedia links to
the different map features?
Ie. esker, snowshed...
Or i could add a link to EVERY map feature, including the ones that are obvious?
Another alternative is to add a description:* or definition=*
(spelled correctly)
what
mind going in there and changing the
existing tags with the template to reflect this.
Thanks,

ps, based on the feedback, i decided not to use the wikipedia tag
with the canvec/geobase map features, as its not needed
a dictionary definition be used instead of encyclopedia?

Why is it that all of the templates for the detail box on the right
have Google definition and a link to a search for that tag on google
search?
I'd even ask
then
when a user on the ground sees it, can accurately tag it.
Thanks,

=auto_wrecker would be better?
I dont see a way to add it to the wiki, as it seems to be locked.

Hi,
Some of my sample files are greater than 2 megs, and so i have a hard
time trying to load the file onto JOSM.?
My approach for uploading all that data once i get it into JOSM is simple.
I would select the 1/2 of it, then 1/2 again and delete. Thus, left
with only 1/4 of the data for the
1 - 100 of 912 matches
