How much time should it take? I didn't really set a dead line but was
trying to get comments on the idea...
My two cents:
winery is a better term than vineyard because, in some contexts at
least, the two have distinct meanings.
cellar door is a bad term because it will be taken literally by many
people and lead to confusion.

Many of these places sell a very wide range of goods, so something like
building_supplies is sufficiently general to cover such cases.

Well, that's another reason to tag them separately, right? So we can

Ed - the proper way to do bus routes is using relations. The operator

If you want to add route_ref tags to the bus stops, then just make a

I don't understand this argument. Doesn't every tag change anywhere break

John has just as much right to go change all the amenity= tags to something
more specific as you do to keep them the same. Data consumers
