relations are NO CATEGORIES in OSM, that's agreed since years!

Please delete these relations.

BTW: it's not possible to keep such a relation up to date  if it has a 
reasonable amount of objects => any new node or way of  the network has 
to be included. But e.g. I didn't know about that relation => I wouldn't 
include a new node or way => would be missing. So I don't see any chance 
to have all objects within a relation. => another argument against a 
relation used as category.



Best regards,
Michael.
