how unfortunate. i ride with a bunch of motorcyclists that aren't averse to dirt roads, but who like to know where they are -- 20, or even 50, miles of dirt in a day is one thing, but 150 is another. nice to know for planning, but you can't avoid dirt in new england if you want to do any exploring at all. and while as a group i think we have a large body of knowledge about what's dirt and what's not in new england, no one person knows it all, of course. i have a message all prepared for that mailing list, extolling the grandeurs of OSM mapping, and how they should all start recording their knowledge in OSM. but if the renderers don't show it, there's not much point in asking them to help add the data. paul =--------------------- paul fox, p...@foxharp.boston.ma.us (arlington, ma, where it's 55.8 degrees) _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
