[OSM-talk] Relation 412 errors

Hi,

Possibly an object referenced by that relation got deleted somehow  
and now you can't upload changes as that would refer to a deleted  
object. Shouldn't happen, I'll investigate later today.

Not currently.

I have ideas how to handle this in JOSM but haven't done anything  
about them yet. For Potlatch, I think I read that there's a pending  
0.8 release that works with (certain types of) relations.

Bye
Frederik
