This is largely a problem with our tools, not something that can't be fixed. Distributed version control systems already solve the problem of merging foreign data where your copy of it has moved since the original import, there's no reason for why we couldn't make keeping imports up-to-date significantly easier using similar techniques. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
