The two that I've had trouble with are Nominatim and Navit. In the past, both considered place= values of (at least) city, town, village, and hamlet to be mutually exclusive. I gather Nominatim doesn't anymore, but as far as I know, Navit still does, and is arguably justified in doing so, since that approach matches the wiki definitions for those values. -- ...computer contrarian of the first order... / http://aperiodic.net/phil/ PGP: 026A27F2 print: D200 5BDB FC4B B24A 9248 9F7A 4322 2D22 026A 27F2 --- -- Call me paranoid but finding `/*' inside this comment makes me suspicious -- Apple MPW C Compiler error message ---- --- -- _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
