That brought up another question to my mind, which isn't related to the name finder in particular: Is there any agreement on how to tag abreviated place names? When there's the 'Volkswagen plant' people would also search for 'VW plant'. Obviously no application like the name finder can be expected to know the abreviations of all companies and institutions of the world. So the data should hold that information itself. What about 'short_name', just to make that *_name list a little longer? BTW, does name finder use loc_name and such? regards, Sven _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
