[OSM-talk] Not attaching polygons to roads

[Dave F.]

This is the changeset: http://tinyurl.com/ndjzpkm

Notice in particular the attachment of the cemetery (that in reality has 
a wall boundary) to the middle of a roundabout. As we increasing map to 
a finer detail, especially in urban areas, His reversal to a 'blanket' 
style coverage is a step backwards. My edits are based on visual survey 
(bike ride) backed up with Bing imagery.

If someone could please revert this changeset I'd much appreciate it. I 
would do it myself I'm not conversant with JOSM & it's reversal tool - I 
don't wish to make matters worse.

Thanks
Dave F.
