I do regular integrity checks of long distance route relations in Nederland. I used to find dozens of errors in each trail. These trails are 200-400 Km long (10-20 days). The errors were typically caused by users not repairing the routes after cutting, deleting, extending or otherwise editing ways. The main editor involved was ID. JOSM in a minority of cases.
I am very happy to report that my current check finds very few integrity errors, and the few I see are not caused by using a specific editing tool. Compliments to the "ID-people", you have done it! I now need 5-10 minutes to check and repair a 20 day hiking route. I have about 40 of these on my list. If I spend 1 hour a month, I can now check them all twice in a year. This does not mean ID is now a good route editor. Sorry guys&girls, but for serious route maintenance JOSM still is the only option! If there were an online relation editor even remotely capable of what the JOSM relation editor can do, I would certainly prefer that. It would not have to be built into ID. Editing routes "any time, any place" without having to carry a laptop around would be a step forward for me. Vr gr Peter Elderson
