Hi, I've already edited Rational paragraph to give a better description with distinction between buildings where workers can enter.
Secondly, ok for street_cabinet=waste (and maybe street_cabinet=waste_management if cabinets are encountered with devices to manage waste transit or storage) man_made=street_cabinet isn't incompatible with amenity=waste_* and street_cabinet=waste should concern anything regarding waste. I'm not so friendly with proposal editing while voting. Nevertheless, with such extensive keys like street_cabinet=* I think users won't mind if we document additional values. Is everybody ok with it ? *François Lacombe* francois dot lacombe At telecom-bretagne dot eu http://www.infos-reseaux.com 2014-11-01 11:04 GMT+01:00 johnw <jo...@mac.com>: > Well, they re not open to the public - only the designated houses in the > area can use their station, not anyone else.
