Comment(by robe):

 See details of ticket #1643.  I have load logic for addrfeat but not doing
 anything with that table yet.

 One thing I am noticing is that my faces and edges loaded from 2011 are
 fewer than what I got with the 2010 data for Massachusetts.  I'm guessing
 that maybe the new 2011 doesn't have redundant tlids and faces that
 represent the boundaries of the counties.  I haven't confirmed its not an
 issue with my load.

 For example my 2010 ma_edges had 900450 and my 2011 ma_edges load has
 880344.

 2010 ma_faces had 294673 whiel 2011 ma_faces has 283801
  Seems too many to be explained away by boundary edges, but maybe not.
 Will check the docs next.  Maybe some cleanup happened with merging of
 edges or something
