I recently saw a problem with the tagging of a node in a /browse page and I wanted to correct it. The problem was that there's no easy way to get a link to directly edit the current object. I don't think it would be overly difficult to modify the view and edit tabs on top so that they point

[OSM-talk] Mapnik boundaries

Did someone break the boundary rendering on the Mapnik layers? It looks like all boundary relations on a given way are now rendering, and that means that if two or more relations for different admin_levels are on one way, different kinds of borders are rendered on top of each other. I guess th
