Hi all, I've just fixed a rare problem with barrier=* in r3206. Now I wonder if mkgmap should really process nodes with barrier=* that are at the start or end of one way. I found many cases in the past where this was a mapping error, e.g. If a small way is connected to a "major" road, and the connection node has barrier=gate, the current implementation will not allow cars to travel along the "major" road. The wiki recommends to avoid this situation: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:barrier%3Dgate says "Avoid tagging highway intersections as that does not make clear which way has the impediment" I think mkgmap should print a warning if that is found and ignore the barrier. OK? Gerd
