Hi all, I'm astonished there isn't a description for spaceports yet, therefore the tagging differs widely : https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Aeroways#aeroway.3Dspaceport - Proposals / Opinions ? IMHO amenity doesn't fit well, as it's just another kind of airport. Cheers, Thilo

Hi, There are two examples of byob=yes, one of bring_your_own_wine=yes, and one alcohol=bring_your_own_bottle. No doubt there are other tags of which I'm not aware. I would have thought that London must have a goodly number of BYOB establishments, and surely more than 4. Regards, Jerry

Hello all, regarding vertical plants, some examples against air pollution came to my mind. it's not really "farming", but at least an "artificial" way to grow plants, so it doesn't really fit with "natural" http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:natural Do you think this should be considered ?
