[talk-au] Object ID Permenence

[John Smith]

Thanks to David and James (on this list) and Anthony from the main
talk list for feedback, we've come up with a proposal on giving
objects in the OSM DB one or more unique IDs which unlike regular OSM
IDs can be shifted from nodes to areas as they are changed.

This proposal will probably not have much benefit for people on this
list, unless you run a 3rd party website that uses OSM IDs to
reference objects on OSM.

However I thought I'd put the ID out there in case anyone has some
ideas that were over looked.
