Presumably most of the current ABS data will disappear automatically  
(as a special user account was set up for the original uploading) but  
what happens if any of these ways are split? For example, if I split a  
way because part of the way follows a river, the new way will be  
counted as being created by myself, so if I agree to the terms, would  
I then need to delete them separately? (or go through all my edits to  
allow only some of them to be accepted?) Or am I prevented from  
agreeing to the new terms because I have split ABS ways?
