Hi all,
As I've just discovered, you need to have some care when editing
anything that causes a change to a way with over 2000 nodes (e.g. a
lot of the ABS boundaries).
NEVER under any circumstances let anything happen to you editor during
the upload. You can't let JOSM crash, have network

I found a SVG version of a highway shield, at least national, on wikipedia, I
should hunt through their image library some more and they might have other
useful icons that we'd be able to use to improve map rendering...

Are national highways marked differently than other highways at all?
The reason I ask is different highways get different shields, and the national
highway network is the only one with a green shield with the word national at
the top.
