ok, a few questions for the experts
Until now I had been..
uploading GPX, clicking edit, clicking convert to (locked) track, then laboriously selecting points, cutting and merging and building up a road system from there.
I realised a while ago that although I was using the points as recorded by GPS, in the change history it just showed as "created by potlatch".
So, I'm now just clicking "edit map" then "show GPS traces" and creating my own roads over the top of the blue lines. It's so much faster
Is this acceptable? (Question 1)
I've noticed that my current GPS traces are on view, along with others, but the old traces I'd been deleting as part of converting them to ways are not on view. The uploads are still there on my profile page. Is this ok, a result of the recent server upgrade, or am I now leaving clutter? (Question 2)
If you have a short footpath, blocked at either end with anti-horse overlapping barriers, how do you label these obstructions? (Question 3).
