[mkgmap-dev] order of lines / roads

Thu May 9 07:21:26 BST 2013

Hi Minko,

if I got this right your problem is solved if roads are added after other
lines,
and other mappers don't care. Since r2588 this is again the case, and the 
overlayed_lines_v1.patch doesn't change that.
So for now I don't want to add much logic for this as long as we don't
understand how
different devices or programs use the data.

OK?
