<div>Hi</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Would it be possible to have a version of the OSM licence <br>change inspector which completely ignored tags of</div>
<div> </div>
<div>maxspeed<br>source:maxspeed<br>maxspeed:source</div>
<div><br>whether for addition deletion or modification.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>This could be just for Australia.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The reason is that in Australia an anonymous user has<br>used a bot to add the maxspeed values for residential<br>roads that did not already have them (the vast majority).</div>
<div>This user used its own account to do this and has declined<br>the CT. The values are often wrong anyway and it will be<br>benificial for the data quality when these are finally<br>purged.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Another (non anonymous) user has used his own account to<br>run another bot to fix some maxspeed:source tags<br>to source:maxspeed. This user is also a decliner.</div>
<div>These values are also not usefull in the database.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Howevewr while they are there the OSM inspoector is<br>recording them as modifications that will degrade the data<br>at licence change time and painting them yellow.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>With so many yelow lines on the Australia map due to these<br>3 tags it is impossible to tell which ways really need <br>to be remapped to avoid unnecessary and damagining<br>way revrsion.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Once I have remapped all the "red" ways in areas that I have<br>personally completely surveyed I would very much like to<br>reclaim as much as possible "clean" mappers work from the<br>real yellow roads before we lose that work.</div>
<div> </div>

<div> </div>
<div>PS -If a decliner has actually gone out and observerd the<br>speed limit sign for an existing way edited by an acceptor,<br>(very unlikely), then we would not be alerted to this.<br>I don't see this as a problem.</div>
