Millennium Greens cover a wide range of on the ground usages. Same
are clearly gardens, some parks, some nature reserves. Please do not
retag these features to some perceived standard. I would also avoid
overloading the designation key - better to have an explicit key than
to reuse and existing key.
About the only thing these area have in common is that they were all
funded as part of the same project, if you want capture this
information I would suggest something like:
millennium_green=yes
or how about:
funding_source=Millennium Green

Yeah you're entirely right that the land cover can be different. They have
to include "significant natural area". The one closest to me is a mix of
grassy areas and woodland. Oddly it misses one part of grassy area. There
is a local nature reserve that includes all the grassed area but not the
wood!! It would make sense to me to tag the whole area as leisure=park and
then to tag the Millennium Green and Local Nature Reserve as 2 separate
closed ways.
I think we could expand this to include:
1. Millennium Greens
2. Doorstep Greens
3. CROW Act 2000 Open Access Land
Perhaps the landuse tag can be used. The main issue here is that the area
is both a village green and a millennium green (although I'm not quite sure
why there would be both on the exact same plot of land). If this is the
case it could be tagged as landuse=millennium_green;village_green. I guess
the other problem is what to do if you have another landuse within the
closed area (can you have one landuse area on top of another?)
On second thoughts, there is a boundary proposal that could work well:

Looks like the boundary tag is already used:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dnational_park
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dprotected_area
Looking at the page on boundary=protected_area, perhaps class 7 is the
right one for Millennium Greens?
