Well, perhaps I misunderstood the proposal. It sounded to me like the proposal was that a store aimed at selling building materials to professional builders, but not the general public, would simply be tagged shop=trade, with no further qualifiers to specify what trade was intended. -- John

Trade is more an access tag, you can have a shop=motor_spares for example. Some are open to the public, others are exclusively to sell to other businesses and will refuse access to normal people. The same is true for some shop=diy, others such as B whilst open to all do have a separate trade

There are a couple shops like "la mesa Lumber" and places dedicated to stone that are public shops. Often times they are the more "pro" shops a builder or DIY person goes to source a large quantity of wood, tile, or stone for a building project - but there is not a tool to be found (all that is

Great idea John. But we are going to have to deal with "mixed" shops, which fall into multiple categories at once. Our reluctance to find a proper solution for multi-valued attributes has already caused zillions of brain-hours to be expended on heated, protracted discussions with no sign of
