I have been adding names to roads using Yury's
"addr_problems_after_case_insensitive_matches files" found at
 https://mega.nz/#F!npsVmAiJ!1N69UR3I7E1PMZEQHDwBPQ!Xk8EFYJY

Everything was going fine until I started on Martha's Vineyard where almost
all of the roads are missing names.

This is a task that can be done easily with the id editor and the GIS file
for the town without using Yuri's files and JOSM.
I was working on Aquinnah & Chilmark today using the town map at
https://www.axisgis.com/ChilmarkMA/

You can see how bad it is using the french site
http://layers.openstreetmap.fr/ and select "unnamed channels" and scroll to
Martha's vineyard. This is a good way to find other places in need of a lot
of help.

Sometimes you have to split the roads at intersections two different roads
are often connected.

Feel free to phone me if this is unclear and you'd like more information.
