I would have introduced myself normally but ....

It would seem that use http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/hardsoft is on
a campaign to remap everything, this would be ok except that most of
his/her remapping attempts will require repair as the new ways rarely
connect to other ways.

Some examples (this is certainly not a complete list)
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/156728997
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/156728991
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/156728986
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/40556031
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/156752098
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/154407242

Now this is going to create just as much work reconnecting ways as what
there would be if the ways were just deleted in the great purge.

So my message to hardsoft and anyone else contemplating mass remapping
efforts is, slow down and check your work otherwise some else is going
to have to come along and fix it all *again*
