might be, that I didn't understand exactly how this error is caused, but it definitely is a Potlatch-error. Also I can tell you that I was quite pleased to see the recent progress of potlatch. It also has some cool unique features (like undelete). It is stylish. It is NOT a piece of shit. It was not my intention to express this. But there is some problems that result from not using the API that insert errors in the data. As I tried to explain you in another thread, in my area / network conditions / backbone connection (or whatever, no idea where it comes from, possibly from the local ISP, db-overload, etc.) potlatch shows some problems with the database connection but still allows you to draw (maybe even in the "without save"-mode, which I would never use for the potential risk) without having downloaded the database content for the current screen. > Ed - generally, such nodes are a sign that saving a way was interrupted > somehow.
