OK Finally given in and downloaded JOSM ;)
I'm liking what I am seeing ... One my dual screen setup I've got the display
area filling the whole left screen, and the options boxes on the right ... with
help open in the remaining area ;)
Remembering to 'right click' to drag is going to take a little getting used to
and 'esc' not actually removing a 'rogue node' ... but the warning before
uploading is helpful. However it is also warning me about the ends of hedges and
other similar detail.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.04696&lon=-1.856523&zoom=18&layers=M is the
area I've been working on, adding the woodland area just north of the A44 and
tidying up the hedge boundaries on that side of the road.
I had to 'disconnect' a number of boundaries that were connected directly to the
A44 to fit the woodland area in and I've added the 'footway' across the
roundabout for pedestrians ... still need to work out any extra tags that needs!
The area that is being complained about is the field just to the right side of
the roundabout. There is a gated road and the 'gap' in the hedge is the gate
into that field off that road. I've currently left the same gap as there is in
the hedge, and on one hand that is right, but how do I add the gate. Obviously
JOSM wants me to close the gap and add the gate? And then to I add a spur off
the road to connect to it? The end of the hedge sticking out is also accurately
mapped and does just 'end' but JOSM does not like that, so what is the 'current
guideline' when we get into this level of mapping?
