It's something I looked at briefly and depending on how many error reports I get I may look at it again if I find lots of phonetic-type errors that aren't matched properly. Postgres' fuzzystrmatch module has DM functions too which is useful. DM as far as I can see is designed for single words, and this would then multiply the word splitting problem I already have. If there were another mechanism I would like to introduce it would be longest common substring matching to catch situations where words have been reordered. robert. _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
