Andy was the one that brought up roads, I was commenting on event areas and areas that got wiped out due to volcanos, so I don't see the point in tagging roads this way since the data is already in the database and can be pulled out using some of the history APIs people have been coding, as for the even areas there seems to be very little if any noticible harm being cause at present due to the niche nature. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
