I doubt any other editors do this. JOSM and P2 currently only do it for the "created_by" tag. JOSM was recently patched to add some TIGER and CanVec specific tags to the list. This patch also created a user preference where tags can be added to the auto-delete list. This is in -latest but not yet in -tested JOSM. P2 has an open ticket for which I'm sure patches would be welcome :) https://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/4552 Toby _______________________________________________ Imports mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/imports
