Make sure the venue is properly tagged, with address. Add local parking and transit amenities, etc so that the map is really useful. Link to that venue with a permalink, or even better, with a shortlink and marker whenever you want to provide a map. If you want to display the location on your LUG web site, consider using OpenLayers to put a nice big LUG logo on the map (or Tux the Penguin) in your location. Some problems aren't tagging problems. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
