It's also a "between other mappers area" - north of the West Midlands, a 
bit west for me and a bit SE for mikh43.

I think so - I spotted the problem around February this year, but didn't 
raise it publicly (or with the guy concerned) because a quick look at at 
that mapper's recent edits suggested that there was less of a problem 
with them.  Whenever I create Garmin maps I tend to append some authors' 
names to the ways as a reminder on the ground to check those ways.

It's a bigger problem than just non-joining ways, though - I've done a 
bit of tidying (usually by just moving them to the correct GPS location) 
in a couple of villages where the roads were in completely the wrong 
place.  I'm not sure what source was used - names seem to have come from 
somewhere even though the locations can be wrong.

Cheers,
Andy
