I'll try to explain the idea of "informal=yes" on a highway=footway/path: it is a path (there is something recognizable on the ground) which is there because people (or maybe animals) are using it frequently, but it is not built on purpose, in fact, nobody built it at all. In German this would be called "Trampelpfad", in French "Ligne de désir", in English "desire line". If there is nothing at all, I don't know if I'd map it (in the end you can find shortcuts on all non-linear ways, depending on the terrain, your equipment and your abilities). If there is a route using this way it surely won't be "nothing". cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
