Well, if possible we should try and find a solution that solves both problems. However, thus far this doesn't seem possible, and the consensus does seem to be that restrictions of a way is of higher priority. But even for that, putting a node in an arbitrary location on a way still seems inelegant to me. > OSM doesn't store lines, it stores nodes, it stores ways and which nodes are > memebers of that way and it stores relations and which ways are members of > that relation. A segment of a way is clearly a line between two points (nodes), without inherent width (sure, it may be specified with width=*, but it's not an inherent property of a way). Anyway, this is off topic. What do you think of my suggestion? That the restriction should be applied to the section of the way "that is indeed physically *under* the bridge"? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
