I think Bob is refering to the rectangles on Robert's Musical Chairs 
overlay. I find that overwhelming with all of the green rectangles when 
all I want to know is what is still remaining to be found, so I use the 
ITO layer which works very well for me, thanks Shane.

I am just completing an extract script to find all of the roads and 
tracks with a  not:name=* tag, with view to listing them with their 
lon+lat to send to Ordnance Survey. They previously expressed an 
interest in seeing these anomalies. In the Hull area there are just over 
100 such differences. When I've checked it works I'll make it available 
if anyone is interested.
