I can't remember exactly but I think it was changed somewhere around
7-8AM this morning.

Great, now I need to find another 15 century word to describe the
opposite situation where multiple oneway roads start at the same
point. At the moment it just says: "Source of oneway roads" but that's
boring, don't you think?

Incidentally, if you specify --report-dead-ends=2 you will get a large
number of warnings (certainly, the GB data has a lot). Some of those
will be genuine problems that could be fixed so if you really are
feeling bored and want something to do you could sift through those
(for your region, of course).

Cheers,

Mark
