I am also not sure what state it is in, but generally as soon as someone sets up a proposal there are people using it, so given that this is more than 2 years old, I see it as more or less in use. For particular keys and tags you can use taginfo to see how widespread the use is, e.g. http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=health_facility%3Atype In any case you can add your comments to the discussion-page of the proposal. You might also want to contact the original author of the proposal to discuss problems. And/or discuss here in public on the tagging-ML. How to procede depends a lot on how many things you'd like to change and how many can be kept. Also keep in mind that some of the features in this proposal might already be somehow implemented somewhere. So if there are things that you can't map with the proposal and which have to be implemented in a non-compatible way (i.e. you have to use the same keys in a different way for some reason) there is a problem, otherwise I'd suggest you use keys that don't interfere with the proposal so that there is no problem. I'd try to keep as much as possible from this proposal and make some compatible amendments where necessary from your point of view. If the original creator of the proposal doesn't want to take the proposal to voting, you could do that yourself, but the "status" doesn't depend much on "voting", but rather on how established the actual use is. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
