Since GPS tracks no longer show in the Applet then I presume all nodes added 
by the Applet are now sourced from yahoo imagery?

When you add a way using the applet it automatically adds the tag created_by 
= YahooApplet1.0, would it not be simpler if the Applet added this to all 
nodes ented via the Applet?
