How would deleting a way that wasn't part of a relation damage a relation linked to some other way? Using that logic, every time a way is deleted, every relation not linked to that way would be damaged, regardless of where in the world the relation was located.

The reason I noticed it was because I merged two identical ways that were part of a state route relation, and the server wouldn't accept the upload because the deleted way was part of the bus route relation. If the merge had gone the other way (deleting the segment that wasn't in the relation) it would not have given the error, and the relation would have been damaged without anyone's knowledge. The bit rot problem isn't only caused by age. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us -- John F.
