Hi,
I was editing the OSM map in the Juhu area, and found that, compared to the yahoo image and to the existing traces, the whole map seems to have slipped a good way south and slightly east also. I checked other parts of the map and find the same error every where. Since the existing GPS traces also coincide with the Yahoo map, I think that somehow someone has moved the whole map of Mumbai south and east. It may also be because my laptop has low memory or something, but i doubt it as I do not see the same problem in Delhi, Bangalore or Chennai. How do we rectifiy this?

you seem to have missed the point. OSM is *our* map - a lot of us are working very hard on it. This is a serious issue which cannot be solved manually - it has to be done programmatically otherwise there is going to be a lot of problems.
