Yes, for me too. That's not the point here. I merely said that by comparison, IMO, access=permit is more like access=public (or access=yes) than it is to access=private. If you think access=private is closer, so be it. Either way, access to the general public is available via a permit, so IMO it cannot be considered private, nor is it an unqualified "yes". We'll just have to agree to disagree. I'm not alone in wishing this were an easier process and that a resolution would be agreed upon. Unfortunately, it might never happen because even with what I see as crystal clear reasoning provided by Kevin, it's obvious to me consensus will not be possible within the group. But should it somehow come to pass that a better tagging scenario results, I can easily replace my access=permit tags. As for whether the object also contains contact info or permit info as well, that is an option available to mappers much like the number of lanes of a highway, or its surface - it's optional and can always be added later. To make such a subsidiary tag a de facto requirement for acceptance is over shooting the mark On Tue, Sep 19, 2017 at 8:12 AM, Warin <[email protected]> wrote: > On 19-Sep-17 09:54 AM, Kevin Kenny wrote: > > On Mon, Sep 18, 2017 at 6:58 PM, Warin <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On 19-Sep-17 03:56 AM, Kevin Kenny wrote: >> >> The real-life sign says, "Access by permit only, for information >> contact..." and that's what I propose to map! >> >> Yep. >> I think the important thing is the contact information - this is where >> the detail of what is required can be obtained rather than having those >> details in OSM. >> It is the details that vary a lot from place to place and maybe too >> varied around the world for renders to be bothered with.
