British National Grid/Latitude and Longitude
I have recently found that the files of the British National Grid
and Latitude/Longitude which I published in OSM XML format (http://www.rogercalvert.me.uk/OSM)
are not compatible with Osmosis. This expects OSM XML format version
0.6, while my files were version 0.5. The critical difference seems
to be that in OSM 0.6, nodes and ways must have a version
attribute. This significantly increases the file size - about 25%
for the GBGrid and about 13% for LatLong covering Great Britain.
I have modified the National Grid download package to include both
0.5 and 0.6 versions.
I have added an option for the Latitude/Longitude generator to allow
selection of version (0.6 is the default).
Please let me know of any problems you encounter in accessing or
using these.
