So that annoying l33t GPS hackers don't go to the trouble of 'faking' their timestamps just so they can play OpenStreetMap, sigh.

I would also suggest banning people who are submitting fake data, but that's an argument for another day.

The attached patch should set the year to the UNIX epoch (though I don't have a setup to test it on at the moment). I wasn't sure if the date was required by other pieces of code so I used the epoch instead of simply not specifying a date and time. The latter would be prefered, I'd think, if there are no other dependencies.

Suggest that, instead of setting the time to the epoch, it should set:

  • point 1 = epoch

  • point 2 = epoch+1

  • point 3 = epoch+2

so that the order of the journey is preserved (and lines can be drawn between points).
