Nobody has told me how I can create a relation which hops between OSM and OHM. Nobody has told me how I can have a node keep the same location in both OSM and OHM. Nobody has told me how I can tag a way which exists in OSM as railway=abandoned in OHM. I have a different solution, one which works today and doesn't require some fantasy software to be invented later: Map entities which are partially destroyed and partially existing, and tag them exactly that way. You want to know what's different, Frederik? This go-around, I now understand the problem that I'm facing: that OSM putatively rejects historical objects, and yet the object in this case is a railway which is partially gone and partially present, but what is to be mapped is not the parts, but the whole. Not asking you to do it. Asking that you support a policy of allowing it. -- --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
