Those have lost their primary focus as a place to go for a drink, to meet people and to network. Or possibly as gastropubs, since they're still (at least slightly) a distinct kind of establishment, and that's a term that's commonly used to refer to them. Also, they still look like pubs on the outside. __John ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
Re: [Tagging] Are addresses features or attributes?

Adresses are attributes of physical objects, e.g. a parcel, a house, or a part of a house. The only exception I know are PO boxes which may not be attributes of physical objects, but attributes of organisations. There are no addresses for their own sake, because they wouldn't make any sense. They are just pipe dreams. Nobody will ever find a real-world example. -- Friedrich K.

In this case, the address is an attribute of the parcel, the piece of land. It's an attribute anyway. Also some shopping centers have multiple addresses for the same building, so we make address points for each entrance or centroid. Multiple addresses are just multiple attributes, so what? It's the same with multiple names. See my proposal http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_Features/Multiple_addresses for how I think that multiple adresses on the same object should be mapped. If you tag each address on an entrance, this makes the address an attribute of that entrance. -- Friedrich K.

If you investigated the situation and you are sure that you can provide a good estimate for a polygon describing an address I'd say that's preferable and you don't have to add address duplicates to all features inside this polygon, but mappers should also enter addresses on nodes when they are not able or willing to investigate further to get this polygon. In this case also 2 and more POIs sharing the same address should each get their own set. I agree with that, except for the first sentence. Mapping an address as a standalone node is better than not mapping it at all, but that does not make it a feature. It's just like creating a node with name=* and nothing else. -- Friedrich K.
