I think this whole "natural" discussion/criteria is not useful at all, because the rock itself is natural also in a quarry. "natural" in the sense of not-modified by humans is not a good criteria for tagging in general IMHO --- btw.: humans are also "natural". cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
