That's a very cool tool, so thanks for sharing!  Unfortunately, it's
not quite relevant to my problem.

I've put the information on a separate layer in "umap".  This is an
application hosted on the French OSM servers (osm.fr), which allows
you to put markers, lines, etc. over OSM data.  It's very convenient
for making useful embeddable marked-up maps for special purposes (for
example, I put that map on
http://wikilovesmonuments.co.za/wiki/Lists_of_monuments so that our
users can look up the monuments for which we got data from SAHRA), but
I need to know how to get the data back out if I crowdsource
improvements to the data.

Thanks,

David
