I'm always in favor of tags meaning the same thing everywhere, so maybe we need to come up with a new access or way to map houses that don't allow unannounced visitors. Maybe something like access=no_trespassing? Or maybe the culture is different where you are. Does everyone put up signs saying all unannounced visitors will be shot at or have the police called on them, or is it just culturally assumed? Here it's maybe 5-10% that are unfriendly to visitors, so the distinction is worth mapping. Or maybe just having an unannounced visitor is an American thing. - Alex (aweech) On Mon, Aug 17, 2020, at 2:54 AM, Rory McCann wrote: > I don't map in USA, but when I map driveways in Ireland, I add > `access=private`.
