[OSM-talk] Duplicated Refugee Camps

[Jean-Guilhem Cailton]

The tools would have to be more advanced than they are now, to 
complement automatically your tagging depending on what you are looking at.

In my experience, going from Potlach to JOSM was not a problem, and well 
worth it, once you have found your workflow. I find it much more 
conformable to do repeated edits in JOSM than in Potlach.

Maybe you should make the suggestion to the Potlach developers. The wiki 
is your friend.
