<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I'm Florida based, have seen
Floridaeditor's changes and noticed an eagerness to change a lot
of road classifications. I didn't pay a lot of attention until
now. Of course, trunk can be a tricky one, but if you got one lone
guy on a mission who is arguing with everyone along the path,
reverting any differences of opinion, etc - that is getting
abusive and needs to stop. It is certainly NE2ish behavior. Other
than NE2s behavior towards people who didn't agree and subsequent
banning, he taught me a good bit, did a lot of good for FL and was
actually inspirational in the beginning of my OSM journey showing
what was possible and the impact a prolific editor could have.
Sucks that he couldn't play well with others. Pretty sure he was
based out of Orlando. Floridaeditor started editing in the
Melbourne area not far from Orlando. His editing behavior is
somewhat similar to NE2 in that they are / was editing a fairly
wide variety of feature types. Also a focus on highway types in
many other states and forcefully arguing with others in other
states / local stomping grounds.<br>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Anywho, seems like collective wisdom
should rule the day with most things OSM, right? Especially
long-time editors who have been through the wilderness and put a
lot of thought into how features be mapped and tagged. And
importantly are engaging with others in a respectful way. <br>

They are often designed to interstate standards and there is
literally no distinction between them and interstate freeways
except that there's no interstate shield.<br>

someone is sending him and trying to get this resolved. Many

unjustified.<br>

<br>
Throughout this entire discussion, it sounds like there's
pretty good<br>
agreement that trunk is perfectly acceptable to use as a road<br>
classification in OSM for the eastern US, and at least some
general<br>
agreement that the examples I cited are reasonable examples of
trunk<br>
roads? Am I mis-interpreting anyone?<br>
<br>
And also, that I'm not the only one who's very much disturbed
by<br>
floridaeditor's changes?<br>
<br>
Does anyone have a strong problem if I continue going through
Georgia<br>
and reversing most of his trunk-to-primary changes?<br>
