There are species that are both broad-leaved and evergreen. One example would be magnolia trees. They drop old leaves in the spring, as new leaves grow. At no time is the tree leafless. John Sturdy jcg.stu...@gmail.com wrote: On Sun, Jul 7, 2013 at 5:47 PM, fly lowfligh...@googlemail.com

There are no approved tags in OSM. You can use any tag you want, so if the childcare tags suit you, use them. I agree that discussion and documentation are very helpful, but a few negative votes (even thousands of negative votes) cannot stop the tag being used. There are no tag police, no

It would probably be good to re-open discussion (and add your voice to it, particularly as you have an interest in using such a tag); after that, I think this one could be ready to vote on. __John On 7/9/13, alyssa wright alyssapwri...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks. I'm beginning to get a better
