Then "changing" the world wide default (or even a local one) will drop a crutial information they knew but didn't tagged explicitly I've been turning it in my mind for a few month, but I think we are in a corner case here (see the noname proposal, the nomaxspeed proposal, and any no* proposal) "In the current schem, not tagging some feature cannot be destinguished from the user didn't know or the user did suppose the default" -- Sylvain Letuffe [EMAIL PROTECTED] qui suis-je : http://slyserv.dyndns.org _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
