Yes local changeset feeds are getting polluted. I would rather though the feeds (at least optionally) only include changesets which either, * modify a node that falls inside the feed bbox, or * modify a way or relation that itself has nodes that fall inside the feed bbox. The feeds I'm talking about are these ones, http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changesets/feed?bbox=... I'm not sure what actually happens but it looks like if the feed bbox overlaps with the changeset bbox, then the changset is added to the feed. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
