[Talk-ca] Lake Ontario Missing...

[G. Michael Carter]

Here it is.   http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1206310

It's been bastardized beyond recognition.  I spent weeks on that.  oh well
guess lake ontario is considered a salt water ocean and nothing I say will
change that view.

What I was doing was using canvec data to create a Canadian side water
object of the Lake Ontario, then changing the coastline side to a
multi-purpose line to reconnect the coastline.  Just needed to finish it
before I could connect it.  (posted that to the talk-ca list a while ago)

Problem with coastlines on internal lakes, is to render the great lakes you
need to pull in all of north-america.   GPS can't render partial data.
 (Unless you know another way)

I guess since my objects are being trashed the only thing I can do is pull
all of North America to render these lakes.  Guess this is they way of OSM,
you can have your project in progress trashed because someone has a
different view.  Oh well.

Andrew,

Any projection to when you will be completely finished your work?   Now that
I have to pull all of north america I want to wait till your done before I
start the 18G transfer.
