Sorry, my comments were tongue in cheek. I don't expect there to be many

You're right: that OAM imagery is very detailed. Unfortunately, it's not that

i'm doing some work in potlatch (tracing buildings) that needs high zoom
to be able to trace the building edges.
so, to richard: is there anyway to zoom the yahoo data, rather than it
disappearing at high zooms? i realise it'll be somewhat pixellated, but
it's still better than nothing

Hi folks,
I'm in the process of getting a custom high-visibility safety vest

on-foot and sometimes find myself near busy roads, etc. It's also a

That's propably the trace viewer sucking horribly. If you look at his other
traces, you can see that he has got other traces like that which are
apparently exported from a gis system.

When you try editing it, you can see the intersections of the GPS
lines match points along the ways. I suspect that the nodes are a
valid trace with bogus timestamps, so the points on the trace are
out-of-order, and it looks a mess when you join them.
Other explanations are of course possible!

Richard,
I use both JOSM and Potlatch. Each has its own strengths and would be
missed if it were to disappear. Equally, each could (and I'm sure
will) be improved. I'm not sure what Cloudmade's motivation is. As a
commercial company are they looking to make money from their new
