The lineage would still be preserved in the feature's history. Going back to v1, you would always be able to see that the creator was DaveHansenTiger. Assuming that Dave never used that account to do anything but the TIGER import. I see some more recent changesets by that user that seem to be import fixes, like this one here. http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/2443534 All in all though, I don't think we need that tag to preserve lineage. Changesets are the place to include lineage information, if you ask me. (I'd deprecate the source= tag altogether, but that's a different discussion) Martijn -- martijn van exel http://oegeo.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
