I was just looking at the UK county and local boundaries we have in OSM:

- does that indicate that a little push for completeness might in in
order? or that the other counties already exist but that I chose the
wrong rules to make them render?

just wondering: are any of the highway=footpath tags still in OSM
database? I always used to use those for legal rights-of-way
footpaths with a footpath sign until it became OSM-standard that
highway=footway should be used for all paths regardless of legal
status.
Is this break in it intentional? http://osm.org/go/0EDRRyA6

In firefox, the 'view image' - 'print preview' commands on a static
map works very well -- the map image is scaled by firefox to fit
whatever paper you are using.
Of course, the resolution of the image doesn't necessarily match that
of your printer...

Hi. Just noticed a street that has been marked with oneway=yes, even
though the lane in the other direction is big, wide, excellent
quality, and legal to use if you have a bus or bike.
Is the oneway=yes tag implicitly connected to the idea that maps are
mainly for private cars?
In this case, the opposite cycle lane is 6 metres wide and separated
by a central reservation from the oneway part of the road opposite.
So tagging it like one of those painted one-metre-wide lanes might get
confusing.
But generally the question is should oneway to cars be tagged as
oneway=yes?
Would it be worth including the cycle map as a layer on the front-page map?
