In the UK, ABC used to be on 2. cheers, Stewart ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca

I'd prefer it over contact:phone, because that's a needless namespace.

I wonder if OSM uses the UK concept of storey, where a two storey building has three levels (ground floor, first floor, second floor)? Was a huge confusion for me when I first moved to Canada: first floor means one level up. Stewart ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
