That would be awesome if he can get it online.

It also reminds me of something I wanted to mention about the old TIGER
import - you guys will notice that most of the roads in P.R. have a whole
bunch of attributes that were imported when they dumped all this data into
the database in 2008.  One of those attributes is "tiger:reviewed=no".  I
think it is a good idea when anybody updates a road, that we remove this
tag.  That's what the OSM Wiki suggests for updating TIGER data.  That way
it is easier to keep track of which roads have been edited/reviewed by
somebody and which ones have not.
