(And no, you won't be able to access its history through the web site, it will time out.) See https://github.com/openstreetmap/osm2pgsql/issues/713 for background - osm2pgsql had to be patched as a result. > Anyway, I’m not totally against them, but every one of them is different > and I can't spend weeks or months supporting every kind of relation or > public transport schema people dream up unless it’s super critical for > building a useful map (like turn restrictions). The idea that turn restrictions are "super critical" but public transport relations are not is valid, but subjective; I hope that, as the ID editor matures, it will attract a healthy and diverse team of main developers so that decisions about what is important and what isn't are not a single person's any more!
