Especially when you start looking at the edits closer, small apparently insignicant changes on one way of a changeset but large numbers of items in the changeset. For example adding a name to oneside of a dualcarriageway road and not the other but deleting the source=nearmap tag from both at the same time, with 100+ ways in total in the changeset but this is the only change. This is just one example I found I'm sure if I go through the rest of the changesets then there will be others. -- Cheers Ross _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
