[Talk-ca] Merging CanVec data, updating status

Did anyone hear that loud bang last night...?  That was my head 
repeatedly hitting the table while I repeated the words "look before you 
leap!" :-)

I spent 1 hour updating and processing a CanVec tile.  When I was 
finished I ran the verification step and fixed duplicates.   Then when I 
started to go through the duplicates, I noticed +12,000 duplicate nodes 
and over 5,000 duplicate ways (or something like that).   Upon further 
investigation, andrewpmk had already processed and uploaded the grid.  
*grin*   That's what I get for taking a short cut and downloading the 
current data into the CanVec layer and processing it all at once.  
(which I do in the barren areas which no real city data yet)

Needless to say I've gone through andrewpmk's edits list and updated 
https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Ati4aAtBXfTVdERaUWZPNWhxTDJFOTF4STFLa25HbVE&hl=en 


I was wondering is there anyone else editing in Ontario.  If everyone 
keeps putting the CanVec tile code they processed in the "comments" 
section of the changeset, I don't mind updating this spreadsheet.  Just 
need to know who's working on CanVec tiles.
