The only reason for wanting to be a conformist is the possibility for more meaningful rendering sooner. Currently, shop=xyz on a node, where xyz is unknown, results in no name rendering on Mapnik. So, I've revised my approach to placing non-rendering shop types on the building outline where the name= tag will be shown. Previously, I had preferred the lone node inside a building outline so that new people can more easily spot buildings that have not been identified, then they can drop a POI icon without resulting in duplicate name rendering. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
