Handles "1 relation for both directions", roundabouts, child relations and even "1 relation for 4 directions" (see MI 5: http://toolserver.org/~nakor/relation.fcgi?relation=252428 ) Thanks, N. ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us

The Diff code is a little tangled, but from the WIKI, it looks like only interstates I-24, I-26, I-84 were merged from 2-relations into 1-relation with roles. The rest of the system still has the relation numbers listed in the WIKI. From what I can see, it looks like there's no clear winner between the two systems, although quite a few Interstates are still missing supers. I'm happy to use either method, but one of the reasons why I prefer the 1-relation-per-direction method is that it lets me quickly find areas that need to be split into dual carriageways. i prefer using one relation per direction, and that's what i've been doing. if the consensus should sway the other way, i won't engage in a lot of public whining about it, though. richard ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us

One of the reasons I started this discussion was to make sure that what the wiki calls for is still "right".
