[Talk-ca] Some feedback on import quality in Toronto

[Yaro Shkvorets]

Danny,
Do you mind sharing how to fix almost square angles in JOSM? I remember
seeing such warning a year or two ago but for some reason I don't see it
anymore and can't find it in the Validator settings.
Did they remove it from the latest version of JOSM or you need to add this
rule manually?
If there is an easy way to do it then we should do it I guess.
