Thanks! > How were you envisioning this being run? Someone sees a braided street > (like in JOSM), saves the .osm file, runs the tool, then uploads? It does its own download so you just have to give it two way numbers, and it produces a JOSM change file. Then you open that in JOSM, check the results, and upload. I'm a little wary of automatic uploads. There are a number of intersecting ways listed on the Tiger fixup page that aren't really braided streets, and I'm not sure what it will do in all of those cases. > Could the algorithm be moved into the JOSM validator plugin?

Unfortunately, it is in perl because that's what I know; I've never done anything in Java yet. I've been wondering if this may be just the time to learn it. I'm not sure if a JOSM plugin is a good place to start learning Java or if that is biting off too much to start. Any advice?
