Another more osm-like (i.e. less frigging namespaces) * This node, set away from the road slightly, is houseno = 25 * This node is houseno = 37 * This way joining those two is numbering = odd * This relation combines the street, the number-lines on both sides, and house 44 which, for some reason, is round the corner. Has the advantage that the number lines are not affected by the roads changing direction (or even the direction of the number line) and someone can add in a node(s) to the middle of the line and give it a precise house number. Just a suggestion; probably something glaringly obviously wrong.
