Oh yeah, another advantage (though this is more useful for street names than it is for addresses) is that you can add extra details to the street name which would be tedious to repeat over and over again. For instance, you could add a pronunciation transcription so that text-to-speech apps can read the name of the street. It'd be much better to link to a place with the name of the street and the pronunciation transcription than it would be to copy the pronunciation transcription to every instance of the street name. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
