[OSM-talk] Anomaly in OSM node IDs?

[Simon Poole]

The app is using 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6#Create:_PUT_/api/0.6/[node|way|relation]/create 
to create the node(s) JOSM, iD etc use the diff upload mechanism, so it 
could quite be that there is something going wrong. Note however that 
the talk list is the totally wrong place for this,it should either be an 
issue in the rails port repo, or on the dev mailing list.
