<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi Dave,<br><br></div>You're right, you have to tag that one as deleted. Or search for it with JOSM and delete it there. You don't have to do it in one session. While editing with a text editor, it's probably best not to have the layer present in JOSM.<br><br></div>Jo<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2016-01-01 19:56 GMT+01:00 Dave F. <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:davefox@madasafish.com" target="_blank">davefox@madasafish.com</a>></span>:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

    <div>Thanks to all who commented.<br>
      <br>
      In hindsight I probably wasn't worth doing, but I've learnt
      something new for the future (especially that it can be done in
      P2)<br>
      <br>
      Jo, I haven't tested it but does JOSM know it's meant to delete
      the latter relation? Does the download/editing/upload have to be
      performed in one session?<br>
      <br>
