Unfortunately he accidentally nuked a bunch of nodes in one area. He tried to re-add them but he didn't get them all. He has also added some things and then re-deleted them. I am in contact with him trying to figure things out but for those who have experience reverting things: How hard would it be to revert all his changesets and "reset" the map to the way it was a few days ago? I'm not actually asking for a revert (yet) because I'm still discussing it with him but I wanted some input from someone with reverting experience. I wasn't sure how it would turn out with multiple add/delete cycles going on.
Wow - I think he would be a good sample case for those conducting UI studies in how to improve the operation so that he is not tempted to do the wrong thing.
It look like the changesets are relatively small, and a revert of all changesets might be easier - particularly after all the named object deletions. Otherwise something will be forgotten. I hope that your tutorial sessions are successful.
I wonder how frequently something like this happens in some unmonitored area in the US.
