[talk-au] Victorian Coastline

[Steve Bennett]

Would be good to come up with a general policy on administrative
boundaries and coastlines. What end result do we want exactly?

Here are five options:
1) Administrative boundaries are as imported, and will randomly
criss-cross the coastline (current situation)
2) Admin boundaries are on the same way as the coastline
(natural=coastline;boundary=administrative;admin_level=8...)
3) Admin boundaries are colinear with the coastline, but on a
different way (natural=coastline, than a separate, colinear way with
boundary=administrative;admin_level=8...)
4) Admin boundaries are parallel with the coastline, inside it. (How far?)
5) Admin boundaries are parallel with the coastline, outside it. (How far?)

Preferences?

Then we can document it.
