Whatever.

My point was that maxspeed:source is incorrect and should be source:maxspeed and if you are adding/converting them they should be source:maxspeed.

Ross, that's not my understanding of the situation at all.....

JohnSmith's last edit before lockout was on June 19th 2011


Therefore I believe that JohnSmith had no intention of fixing these
errors in OSM.

In fact it would not matter if he did so anyway. By applying his edits
over probably
hundreds of thousands of ways and then refusing to relicence these edits
he has made the task of
making the OSM data compliant quite tricky.

It now relies on the DWG removing JohnSmith's maxspeed bot edits without
destroying
other mappers subsequent efforts. In the meantime it would be a huge
advantage if potlatch or some other
OSM viewer could just ignore all maxspeed edits in the process of
determining which ways need to be remapped.
