of ways like this so they can be separated from the ABS data prior to
deletion. (Any volunteers for this?)

Yes indeed, I've being doing just that, although I did manage to recover
part of Tumut river after deleting some interfering ABS ways.

It had been realigned to the ABS data (or vice versa) but the Bing imagery
was adequate to remap it. There is a lot more of Tumut river to disentangle
from
the ABS data and I will eventually get round to it.


If no one else has produced a list of edited ABS ways then I will do so on
the weekend.  I could do
it right now simply by AWKing through a planet file but I want to relearn
how to use osmosis properly.
