[Talk-ca] Accidental deletions in Victoria

[Peter Freeman]

Hi Apollinaris,

Please go ahead with a reversion of the changeset as the other edits I
did are minor and I can easily redo them.  I use JOSM not Potlatch and
at this stage I am not familiar with how JOSM would do reversions.

Thanks,

Peter

I would like to know how it happened, however I am thinking that it might have been caused by Validator when I used the Automatic Fix of nodes without ways.  I can repair it as I have  a number of  GPS traces of the road from various bike training rides over the last year, however, I would like to know how to revert the changeset.  In future, I will keep an eye on what Valiadator does.  Does anyone have any experience with Validator issues?

As a note, there are a couple of areas inside the park that are ponds traced from Yahoo but not yet tagged, I was planning to deal with them when I add some footpaths using JOSM. I made a day trip to Victoria on Saturday.
