Re: [Talk-GB] New mapper causing problems
Hi Neil, I had spotted him and have sent him a message and a changeset comment.http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/31024226 Actually looks like his edits are getting worse. I'm on a flight in 4 hours, but should be back home tomorrow.

You may act to revert the changesets in question within good reason: in this case, you will want to argue that it is the duplication of ways and the fracturing of the network in general (is that the right term?). ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
