Most interesting, I wonder how many similar errors that OSM could correct in the official datasets.

I unfortunately missed this, as I was sat in the Imperial computing lab, finishing off the compilers group project :(

Maybe I'll make it to an OSM Christmas meet at some point?

I only got a quick glance at wherecamp, how's it going?

Unfortunately I couldn't make it, a little thing called a Final Haskell Programming exam at 10am this morning got in the way...

Looking forward to the 27th though!

Awesome

Unfortunately, I could be on a minibus to Dartmoor, otherwise, yes!

Fantastic - getting GPS signal inside these places was impossible.

I personally preferred the glued style, but in these days of ultra-micro-mapping, there's little point now.

How did I miss this? :(

Isn't this sort of tagging usually used for things that have closed, eg amenity=pub disused=yes is difficult.

access=private is a different matter imo.

It's been done to death before. Including by myself, but I took that site down in 2007 over fears that it would make copyright infringement easy.

This is not possible.

The server does not store versions of nodes, ways and relations when they're added to a relation.

To get the full version of a historic relation, you need to compare timestamps of the historic versions of its members.

The server will not support this in the near future, due to the expense of this calculation.

Oh, and I'm sorry I can't make tonight, would have loved to talk about this more, but double-booked myself :(

We obviously need a building_importance=very tag to make them show up in bright red...

My changeset gives my feelings http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/2487807 but, then look at the timestamp for an idea why.

Thanks for expressing the very things I was thinking last night.

Verifying the outlines is going to be an interesting challenge.

I was considering doing a central london survey for the whole day, mostly focusing on naptan tidying. However, I need to find a method for taking the existing data out into the field for comparison...

Google copied us ages ago, except their data isn't open.

I was planning to ride all bus routes out of Sutton town centre with a GPS, I've not yet got around to it... (As so often is the case with me)

The PT Schema that dmuecke was ignored for the purposes of the NaPTAN import due to a fairly late arrival of the specification, and several queries people had over the details. (Plus it didn't help that the whole page was reverted after minor clarifications had been made to it...)

Here's the XSLT one, it gives a lot of detail, and could probably be reduced down to just what's needed: http://geo.topf.org/mapnik/osm.xml

I've seen a couple of mapnik legending scripts in the past, I think one was written by Jochen Topf in XSLT, and another started by Chris Schmidt in python, unfortunately, I don't currently have either to hand.

In Sutton, London, there's the Roundshaw Estate, built on the site of Croydon Airport.

Nearby, there's a few Surrey town names. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.36366&lon=-0.12758&zoom=17&layers=B000FTF

The whole of the St. Helier estate is named after the country's abbeys (they're all located in approximately alphabetical order, too)
