But the Trail itself is open for anybody to walk along, isn't it? So there's nothing stopping an enthusiastic OSM'er from walking it with their GPS, then innocently mapping it, without knowing that that is against the wishes of the local community. Maybe we need some sort of "Do not map" protection for sensitive areas so we can draw a box over the length of the Trail & "10" (?) km either side, so that nothing can be inserted in there? Could be set-up either as a visible greyed out area on the map, or as an area that you just can't edit - feasible? Thanks Graeme
