The data import was from 2010 and was visualy partial : many building 
were incomplet, so I remove *all* old building ways and replace them by 
the 2012 version of Cadastre (people ar building new houses or modifying 
them time to time). It was easier to remove all and produce a new import 
than testing manualy (I'm not a bot) each building.
I think (hope) I succeed in that update.

Again, I'm not a vandal : I do not detroy any work (and nobody complains 
about that), I just "update" data (replace), that is not the point why 
my account was blocked !

So, what have you done in my case ?
