Hi!
I'd imagine that OSM's "as on ground" rule for primary names should
also apply for country nodes (tagged with place=country), however this
doesn't seem to be the case at the moment.
http://osmxapi.hypercube.telascience.org/api/0.5/node%5bplace=country%5d
shows that primary names are english names for most of the countries.
Any thoughts?
Do we bend the rule here in favor of english over local name?
How about multilingual countries (eg. Switzerland)
enjoy the day,
Stefan
