[OSM-talk] Statistics on planet.osm.gz

[Joerg Ostertag]

The script with which I do these stats is geoinfo.pl from the gpsdrive 
package. It's a pre check before inserting them into the gpsdrive database.
The output of some is already availabel. I think writing the information also 
as *.html output isn't too hard.

  can be done, a little more complicated, but I tiink I can do it.

I'll think about this.

I also was thinking about creating automated delete /merge requests
