Sounds like a great idea - that way relations that included the old node will keep working too (though software may still need modifying to look at the way the node is part of). I have done the same thing when tracing outlines for railway stations. All that's needed now is editor support, e.g. an 'explode node to area' tool. -- Ed Avis <e...@waniasset.com> _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
