I was away most of last month, and missed most of the discussion of mini and normal roundabouts. However, looking at the wiki now, from what I can tell the differences now are
-Roundabouts can be mapped as a way or node (though way is preferred), mini roundabouts only as a node -Roundabouts cannot be traversable, mini-roundabouts must be So what do I do about a roundabout that has been mapped out as a way, but is traversable? This weekend I ran across a couple of new (to me) traversable roundabouts on a street that used to have normal intersections. When I checked to see if they have been updated, they have been mapped as roundabout ways. However, both these roundabouts are fully traversable, in fact I saw a bus go across one. How should this be tagged? I don't particularly want to remove the mapped way to tag as a node - if it wasn't mapped as a way and was a normal capped roundabout I'd probably be mapping it as a way myself. Can we use a way marked as mini-roundabout? Photo of one of these here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21448164/IMG_0169C.jpg Or another idea - since there are many mini-roundabouts tagged that aren't really, so the tag is quite polluted at this time, and the only big difference I can see now is if it is traversable or not, maybe we should ignore mini-roundabout all together, just use roundabout and traversable=yes/no.
