Hi,

Your intent is to simplify but I don't understand how replacing one tag by 
three or more with different syntaxes key/value according to the type of 
transportation and their introduction in OSM can make things easier.

I share your view when you say that two schemas is too much to maintain but I 
would rather jump to the conclusion that it is PTv1 which should be dropped if 
we want to drop one as it has limitations. PTv2 is not that complexe, it is 
public transportation which are complexe to map.

One thing I never understood was why we have to maintain two schemas (probably 
because consensus was not reached). I guess this is the main reason why some 
people (especially new mappers) can be lost. And also why wiki can sometime say 
one thing or the opposite. I think it delayed the evolution of renderers and 
tools instead of pushing them to evolve with the schemas. I have the feeling 
that your analysis dropped those factors. Once the map on osm.org will render 
PTv2, I'm sure it will be a huge step and that all the work done will pay. 

Then I don't see where is the difficulty to map two different features instead 
of mapping a single approximate one. It means more work, right, but it adds 
more values to the project as a whole. And since nobody is forced to mapped 
everything on its own...

To conclude: I disagree with part of the analysis and with the whole conclusion.

Yours,

LeTopographeFou

Objet: [Tagging] Still RFC — Drop stop positions and platforms

Hi folks,

A while ago I've made a proposal to deprecate some public_transport=* tags:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Drop_stop_positions_and_platforms

The discussion was very slow, and in general mappers seemed to accept the 
change. I'd like to push this to voting in a few days, but first I want to know 
if somebody has anything to say about the proposal. Like, why we should not. 
I'd prefer to discuss that before the voting has started.

Ilya
