The VIC (Priority) https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/20216 challenge is 
the better place to start for Victoria unless you're really just looking at a 
small local area you are interested in. It only has 317 tasks compared to 
249,850 for the whole VIC. It focuses on strategically important fire trails 
which are missing in OSM.

I realised I need to re-upload the VIC tasks because it doesn't auto-load them 
into JOSM.

I can try to remove these, alternatively if the VIC priority ones get done, 
then I can just re-run the rest of VIC which will pick up most of the changes 
automatically.

These tracks were done by filtering down Vicmap Transport, specificly class 6 
and 7 which are defined as:

* 6 Track 2-Wheel Drive Unimproved roads which are generally only passable in 
two wheel drive vehicles during fair weather and are used predominately by 
local traffic. Also included are driveways regardless of construction.

* 7 Track 4-Wheel Drive Unimproved roads which are generally only passable with 
four wheel drive vehicles.

I missed the last part where it mentions driveways are included, I'll take 
another look to see what can be improved to filter these out.
