I hope that's not being encouraged. Ways should not be split just because there's an intersection. Ways should be split only when the properties of the way change (i.e., speed limit changes, or way goes over a bridge, etc.). Having lots of little streets is almost like having segments again. It's not very efficient. Karl _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
