[talk-au] Australian road review

[Ewen Hill]

Wow Ian,  and I totally agree with Graeme about your time!

The cycling App Strava uses OSM data for their route creation tool and over
the past year or two, I've noticed the percentage of my routes that are
tagged "undefined" has reduced to just a few percent. This might be down to
you in part so thank you and all the other editors.

Well worth the read if you haven't already/
