When they show up, we can have a discussion. In the meantime, I'm here, and many other mappers map abandoned and dismantled railways, and we would like to NOT HAVE YOU FRICK WITH OUR STUFF. > In the meantime, please only map the present in osm. A dismantled railway has been dismantled in the present. You can go and look at it and verify that yes, indeed, it has been dismantled. And then you can go down the block and see where it hasn't been dismantled. It's simply ridiculous to expect OSM clients to have to go from one database to another and back within the course of a few hundred meters. Maybe, as you suggest, some day it won't be ridiculous. -- --my blog is at http://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
