I've seen this topic being discussed here or elsewhere in the past. I thought that the consensus was that in some area's (a Spanish town I believe), it was ok to leave the oneway=no. The reasoning was that most streets in that town were oneway=yes, and the oneway=no was used to indicate that this road was surveyed and and an exception to the oneway=yes.
so a world-wide mechanical edit should not be performed. regards m On Sun, May 31, 2015 at 3:22 AM, Warin <[email protected]> wrote: > On 31/05/2015 10:51 AM, Mike Thompson wrote: > >> I have posted this issue to the Craigslist feedback forum, but I also >> thought I would post it here to see if anyone has a specific contact at >> Cragislist that handles their map rendering.
