[josm-dev] Changed presets, contact

2011-12-15 Thread Martin Koppenhoefer
Recently the JOSM presets changed for fax, phone, website, email (old
keys) to contact:fax, ...

When was this decided? IMHO website is not even a
contact-information in the first place, and looking at actual usage
numbers:
208 408 website
7 116 contact:website

it seems strange to me that this was changed.

cheers,
Martin

 The latest code seems to have 'contact', and 'contact (New schema)' as 
a choice.I would hope that we don't change all presets to the new 
schema without some major research first - I see that Restaurant for 
example still uses the regular schema.


  The Wiki sounds authoritative that the new schema is official and the 
old one is deprecated.  I used the new schema for a while until I 
discovered that virtually NONE of the data consumers recognize the new 
schema.  Data Consumer is an iPhone app where you call up the POI and 
click on the phone number or web site to contact them  (and that to me, 
makes contact:website a legitimate contact).I've since converted all 
my data to the previous, popular tagging since that's the only way it is 
of any use to anyone.
