There is a few zealots, mostly in the euro-centric area of the world that think highway=footway isn't "good enough" because it doesn't indicate the legal standing. However highway=path proposal attempted to make highway=footway redundent, but it was voted against. In the mean time people have been running about "cleaning up" wiki references, which most didn't agree to in the first place. foot=designated just means that's the primary purpose, not that everything else is disallowed, in this case I usually tag highway=footway and the implication is bikes etc are disallowed. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
