Well, somehow it is. He has suggested to use the associatedStreet -type of relation. If this type is editable with PL2, there won't be urgent need to change something. associatedStreet is currently used on ~33000 relations so it could be considered "established" (on the other hand, 33000 is almost nothing compared to all streets we have in the db). I must admit that personally I never felt the need to use this relation type, and I agree with the others that we should try to use as few relations as possible, because they add complexity and potentially hinder less experienced mappers from editing. I also continue to discourage the use of highway=footway for sidewalks that are just separated by a kerb (or not even separated at all) from the street. The tagging proposal of Serge will not allow to enter details about the sidewalks (one of the reasons for me to add sidewalks would be to add details about narrower parts, barriers on the sidewalk, sidewalks with surfaces that are not suitable for wheelchairs, ...) so I won't be able to use it for the mapping needs that I have. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
