Let me refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_fixture here. Yes, indeed I was thinking about this (or rather light_fitting, which should be UK English), which would be the correct technical term. I finally used lamp for the following reasons: - - The term "lamp" is in colloquial use for a light fixture (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamp) and used more often than the technical term. - - The term "lamp" appears in combinations such as "street lamp" (also called "street light"), "signal lamp", and so on. - - Many of the sub-tags lamp:* actually refer to properties (colour, power...) of the lamp. Maybe a native speaker could comment on this, in particular on the first item and common usage of these terms. One could also think about "light" instead of "lamp", as in "street light", "flood light"... But I fear a confusion with traffic lights, which should not be affected by this. Best, Manuel PS: Unfortunately I'll be leaving for a several week business trip today and I don't know when I'll be able to do and OSM related stuff after this. So if anyone would like to "adopt" the proposal from me, please let me know. Otherwise, and if there is no urgent "veto" against it, I would open voting, and I'll be back when the voting period is over. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJSeJ7zAAoJEPvf9RrsekSy/hsH+wd4uiYQE0RqVrjCxtAjqME9 DfMifmrzfr1F5gxnDMMvLvqGIxgdDMtTtdzhTi4eKMJixpYPkvjcVfTw2g/Sf/zp jfBZCT5EfdvPD8d9y7WFf2hmaZZGuKy2m05aWIU5YWLVAa/8ktY9b1ZdZfT4rpY8 OcIgFxBHXGfitl6Zaf1+wRlrouQCm8JYQ4djZzyNljJX2n3CHcdxzlRYps6Iy1ir l2fjb5QC38F9M/rwbmQjsJEPYfiLPLTdt9rRR89VZlarnlxrpv2k5CambJqwu6O4 e8JVcZpbtbfSi3svkZg/WEhkd7ipEYHDQwlvUzbQmrIMozzF/F5iZcrbuv0WCWk= =NY+e -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
