You don't mention which direction you're going. Watch out in northern Oregon, as I've already added relations to some of I-5 and I-84, and I think the entire length of I-205. You might want to see if those are suitable for re-purposing. > Reading other lists I see that this is a know issue with Potlatch and > large relations, with no immediate solution available. > > My idea is to temporarily delete the relations from the highway I am > working on, and then add it back on when the changes are complete. > Bearing in mind that sometimes it might take a few weeks to complete - > I'm really looking forward to I-10 at 2.4k miles!!!! > > Any thoughts, objections, better ideas......please don't say JOSM...... JOSM or Merkaator(sp?) are probably the best tools for the job. JOSM now has modeless Potlach style editing (and has for a couple months now), so you might want to give it another go. It also does a lot of other useful things like highlight bogus relations, unclosed ways, and a lot of other things that Potlatch doesn't do, that potlatch makes difficult to do, or that potlatch visually obfuscates. You also don't have to stop editing just because the server crapped out on you (assuming you already have data), or wait around after every edit for it to save (you just bulk upload your changes when you're done). JOSM also has a relations editor that will make you wonder why you waited so long to give JOSM another go.
