previous proposals: - "armed_forces" - "army". - "military" - "military_vehicles" - "military_personnel" > cannot be "military" because that key is taken First: Shame that namespace is not enforced because access:military=* would be so clear and easy. Second choice: I would like "military". Is the overload of the key such a no-go... Third: I'll go for "military_vehicles".

I am surprised by your choice of "private_hire" because this is the only case where I find that the definition is too implicit and requires the additional "_vehicle". Even if the expression "private hire vehicle" is common, with only "private hire" you could privately hire anything from cars with or without driver to bicycles and horses and caravans. * "private_hire_vehicle" or "vehicle_hire_with_driver": clear and understandable anywhere in the world * "private_hire": starting to be ambiguous and maybe specifically related to England * "minicab": even worse as it seems to be specific to London only and people around the world may understand 'minicab' as some sort of small cab/taxicab. Very misleading IMO. (4) attempt to modify "access" categories and labels Would you care to present a similar version of your ideas? It would be useful to see how you want to arrange labels and hierarchy for the categories you are describing. Maybe on the discussion page like http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Key:access#Draft_of_hierarchy_for_land-based_transportation_mode _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
