Caloundra is just a retirement village suburb of Brisbane right? ;) anyhow, in the UK, to fullfill the city requirement, you need to have a cathedral, minimum population and a bunch of other things. not to mention that a cathedral has minimum requirements, etc... we just need to find what the actual fedral or state guidelines for naming the things are =) cheers, Kim _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
