I noticed the other day that the multipolygon relationship that you created to define the Canada US border has a gap in it. Not sure if was just missed, or if Paul Shipley made the hole. Paul last touched it in July, after you created it in May. The gap happens from the SE corner of Alberta to just south of Shaunavon, SK. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=49.17&lon=-108.49&zoom=8&layers=B000FTF I think you created this in multiple parts, as I tried to revert back, but that didn't bring back the missing section. I don't want to muck things up, so I thought it best to contact you again. The section to the east of the missing piece has also been poked at by "jaded". It may have been due to that, or possibly another user that deleted the multipolygon definition that defined this section of the border. I did an undelete in the area, and come up with 3 different deleted versions of one border or another, but nothing defining the multipolygon similar to the ones that exist on either side. Did we ever come up with a solution for having provincial and state borders show up at a reasonable zoom level for the North American Continent without "tagging for the renderers"? Canada and the USA are massive blank spots on the map. Defining the provincial borders is nearly useless as they can never be seen until you're zoomed in so close that you have to go into editing mode to figure out what the line on the screen is supposed to be.
