Hi,

Thus spake Jo Walsh (metazool at fastmail.net):

No, multipolygons are imported in the same way as polygons. No need to
differentiate in the settings file. For example Vänern in Sweden works
just fine (see attached GRASS screenshot), and it's not exactly a small
multipolygon either: http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/1239458

> Vanilla imposm may also be skipping big relations?

No. They are reported if they take more than 60 seconds to import, but
they are not skipped.

I've imported and rendered the whole earth last year using that very
same imposm installation and settings file, without any trouble. That's
what confuses me ...

Let me know if you find out anything! Thanks so much!

Cheers,
