[OSM-newbies] More questions about map cleanup

[Charlotte Wolter]

Andy,

         Thanks for your suggestions.
         Mapping or remapping: It doesn't matter to me as long as 
there remains a guide, such as OSM Inspector, to let me know what I 
should be working on (rather than having to discover it myself).
         I personally think the change and the deletion of ways has 
been handled too abruptly, and the tools to manage the transition 
appeared too late. Let's hope these tools won't disappear now along 
with the streets.
         Also, is OSM Inspector ever updated? I have deleted and 
redrawn several ways over the last few days, but no change appears in 
OSM Inspector. When is it updated?
         And, also, why is there no wiki for all these questions?
         And, why don't we just replace deleted streets with the 
original TIGER data?

Charlotte
