 As a person with some coding experience, I find this use of = inside a
 key slightly disturbing, as = is the separator between a key and a
 value, plus this method requires duplication of the root element's
 original value.  I'm thinking the 2 keys are better written simply like
 
 source:bicycle = http://www.bicycleinfo.nsw.gov.au/downloads/hornsby.pdf
 source:cycleway = http://www.bicycleinfo.nsw.gov.au/downloads/hornsby.pdf
 

Defiantly. Feel free to fix this.

I would probably even use source_ref:bicycle in these cases where you
are pointing to a URL, but I'm not fussed either way, it is up to you.

Re: [talk-au] import of state borders?

2012-08-21 Thread Ian Sergeant
The Murray boundaries (from the east) are now half way to Lake Hume.
I notice that someone is making a start form the South Australian end
too.

Lots of highways around this area that are unmapped or partially
unmapped.  I've been fixme/incomplete tagging on the way through, and
connecting a road here and there.  If someone is familiar with the
area, there is work to be done here.

 Unfortunately the river is currently only defined by a single way. So this
 would require manual tracing the southern bank from aerial images. And I
 guess the legal definition of the bank for the border is probably different
 from OSM's definition for the riverbank.

 I don't think there is a substantial difference between the OSM
 riverbank definition and the legal definition.

 I've made a start, and the first hundred kms or so of the river now
 has a riverbank and an OSM line in the sand against those pesky
 mexicans.

 So far, the aerial imagery appears well aligned and suitable.
