I often find that I want/need to tag something but don't know enough about it to describe it in detail. highway=road is a good example of this. Here's some that I think are/could be useful: building=yes (rendered) landuse=grass (rendered) natural=water (rendered) highway=road (not-rendered) It would be particularly useful if Yahoo tracers were to use highway=road as I'm sure they can rarely tell what kind of road it is from 30,000ft. 80n > > > - Steve > xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.nexusuk.org/ > > Servatis a periculum, servatis a maleficum - Whisper, Evanescence > >
