Hey Andrew thanks for commenting, I completely forgot about the validator. It’s running through everything now but looks like it’s going to take an hour or two. It seems like it has preference for existing objects so that’s good. Now I’m wondering if it’s going to preserve the ways if all the nodes that connect the ways are removed as duplicates, we’ll see.

I did a quick test of 100 buildings to see how fast I could manually connect the nodes and it only took about 15 minutes, so worst case I’ll connect the other ~1600 by hand if the validator doesn’t work.

I’ll let the imports mailing list know after I finish this up, I don’t want to alarm anyone with this problem which seems to be under control.
