Hi all,

It's really nice to see suburb boundaries popping up around the place, it just 
makes the map look that little bit more professional.

There seems to be some naming redundancy in the NSW data though. The previous 
nswgnb import (before my time, don't know the source or history of this) placed 
suburb names all around the place, and now the ABS suburb import is repeating 
the data. An example of this is here:  
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-32.96227&lon=151.65078&zoom=16&layers=B000FTF

What are people's thoughts about this? Should the data be sanity checked for 
naming consistency then the nswgnb node deleted? Or should it be kept incase 
some renderer doesn't understand the suburb relation? Like perhaps it would be 
easier for the mkgmap devs to keep the nodes rather than have them write code 
to make a node from the relation.

Thoughts?
