The mergers have now been completed, thanks to everybody that helped.

The small change in Buch am Irchel and Neftenbach hasn't been made yet because that requires new geometry and SwissTopo doesn't have that available yet.

Remaining issues:

- postal codes: ~1000 of the ~2500 municipalities don't have postal_code tagged, and likely some of the existing ones are wrong, in a couple of months there is supposed to be a new edition of the data on cadastre.ch available and I'll probably produce an overlay for manual correction etc. as soon as that is ready.

- districts: there was likely a number of changes to districts and similar admin level 6 constructs due to the mergers, checking these remains to be done (for example I noticed that we don't seem to have the Bezirk Schaffhausen at all)

@ Andreas Bürki at least I created new relations as a rule. The easy way to get the current IDs is to use nominatim.openstreetmap.org.

I've created a list here and as far as possible have noted what has
already been done

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Switzerland/2013_Municipiality_Mergers

Thx

When I did some update of DE:Switzerland:Bern in the wiki, the question
poped up if relation number/link will change as well ?

Sample:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1682500 - Relation:
Kallnach (1682500)



I'll be update the street name comparisons at
http://qa.poole.ch/ch-roads asap to any changes in the boundaries, this
isn't critical because I use a separate set of boundary polygons for the
calculations anyway, it is just the two maps that are really affected.

FYI, if not known yet: iD editor (at least JavaScript, instead of Flash)
