My point was to distinguish streets with no name, verses streets with no sign, due to slack councils or vandelism or what not. > That seems like a fairly European-city-centric view to me.

I have no idea about Europe/England to be honest, never been in any European countries. Also euro-centric views tend to clash on occasion with Australian views. Most roads in Australia tend to be named, even some basic concrete slab colvets that aren't even real bridges get named. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
