Are you thinking about "Meis" / "Kastelorizo" just opposite of mainland 
Kas? Yes, the border area between Greece and Turkey, with all those 
islands, will be really interesting ;-)

I will either draw a border between Turkey and the greek island and put 
"FIXME - estimated" tags on the border or maybe leave some border parts 
unmapped to avoid another edit war like the one in Cyprus ;-)

Sure, it will be mostly a manual process either way...
