If you aren't sure what this means, please take a look. It may look small,
but it's kind of a big deal.

IMO, this is a very good thing for OHM and will help spread adoption of OHM
inside the great Wikimedia, Wikimaps, and Wikidata communities, as well as
increasing the potential for LinkedOpenData connections.

Huge thumbs up.

All it takes to support is:
1) Visit the page:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/OHM_Relation_ID
2) Set up an account if you don't have one
3) Show your support by editing the voting section

Thanks, Hannes for taking the lead on this!

Regards,
Jeff
