This is incorrect - revert tools can turn a deleted object into a visible one. So can any user for that matter - it's not like they have any special access. Error 412 is not relevant when reverting in the correct order and there are no conflicts with other edits in the area. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
