I would agree with this. I've recently mapped an Open Space, and tagged on the outer way of its MP the name= tag. The MP itself has one outer, and two inner ways to form landuse=forest, but both the inner ways are also landuse=grass. I've always thought that that is the right way to do things. cheers, Derick _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
