Actually I wasn't suggesting anything about an authority, just limiting what new accounts can do, although with the option of allowing new accounts to do this as well, remember this is suppose to be a deterent, not actually stop someone with appropriate skill level from doing anything. Anyone suitably determined won't be stopped by something like this. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
