No preview function yet - but the next version of Potlatch (Potlatch 2) has real WYSIWYG rendering with street names and everything, so hopefully that will help!

The spam is usually noticed pretty much immediately. There isn't much of a need for a report spam button. The challenge is stopping the spam from being posted in the first place.

http://trac.openstreetmap.org/ is where bug reports should be filed. But please please please check that your issue hasn't already been reported before filing a new one. For those two, you'll need to look under the 'nominatim' component.

Um, Potlatch is already compiled with Ming. Which is open source. "All without any Adobe licences."

If you're using Potlatch (the online editor), select the way and press 'H' for history (or use the Advanced menu) to revert to an earlier version.

Also, he sucks donkey cock for Venezuela.

Ah, right. This is a generic Compiz problem with Flash, I think. See Colin's link, also ubuntuforums, and http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=5505 .

I've not had any other reports of that. What do you mean by "not usable"?

Sorry, "657,674" is not a valid lat/lon pair.

Have you mapped the road from the lunar gate?

If you have a query and need some live help, ask in the chatroom at irc.openstreetmap.org - people there can tell you if there's a problem or if you're doing something wrong.

There's a Perl script on the wiki somewhere that'll upload a GPX using the 0.6 API. But I'm jiggered if I can find it.

Potlatch supports Arabic, or any other, fonts if you have them installed on your system in a location where Flash Player can find them.

I suggest you look at http://www.justskins.com/forums/fonts-in-flashplayer-for-linux-1652.html .

It's your personal diary section, yes, but with comments open to all. If you write a comment to everyone like "come on people", expect the "people" to respond.

One of the great things about OSM is that it provides an opportunity for everyone to scratch their particular itch. Just because your itch differs doesn't mean that either of them is wrong.

The guys behind OpenCycleMap thought toucan crossings were important. You don't? That's cool. Some of us are actually working on making rendering easier so you can create your own custom rendering without toucan crossings. Bitching that existing renderings aren't exactly what you want - well, hey, that sounds like "negative undertones" to me.

Patches welcome.

You could use Potlatch's revert function to put it back.

Great stuff. The last cycle map I made went awol when we moved to the new dev server and I've not had chance to regenerate/upload it yet. You could maybe ask for an account on the dev server if you'd like to host a regularly-updated version!

In Potlatch, just extend the street (i.e. click on the end-point to draw), then double-click on the point on the other street where you want it to end.

Or if you really don't know what is going on here:

Go to the '+' in the top right and turn the misleading, erroneous Maplint layer off. :)

Nope, it's not the wiki account, it's the main account.
