  OK thanks for that.

(moved to dev)

These are temporary measures, and rather hacky (hence the prefix) - a
  stopgap way of uploading a batch of new nodes and segments at once. Nodes
  get uploaded, the server sends back a load of IDs, these are allocated to
  the nodes, then the segments get uploaded and the server sends back a
  load of segment IDs.

Hopefully soon this responsibility will be transferred to the server -  I
  have written (but not fully tested) a script which accepts a full OSM 0.2
  XML stream from the client, which can include both nodes and segments,
  and then either adds the supplied nodes and segments to OSM, or updates
  them, depending on whether they are new nodes or segments (new nodes and
  segments are indicated with negative IDs).
