I think you're referring to the note I left. What I wanted to get across is
that newbies (like me, last week :)) should not go around updating
realigning existing roads without talking to someone first, or thinking it
through.

Do we have an official strategy? In St Kilda, there's a fairly big
discrepancy between existing data and the images, and I haven't really known
what to do about it. The bike path in particular was so far off that I
really no choice but to move it, because it was going through buildings...
