Hi
 
I seem to have stirred up a bit of a hornet's nest by raising this issue - for 
which I apologise. The key issue - I have now learnt from this mailing list - 
seems to be the difference in the UK between the "primary route network" (green 
signs, conventionally tagged in OSM as highway=trunk) and "primary routes" (all 
A roads - green or white signs; green ones tagged highway=trunk, white ones 
tagged highway=primary). I respect the established convention and will not make 
any further changes (I assume all A roads in the UK have been done by now?). 
AFAIK I have corrected back to the established convention the very few changes 
that I have made. On the assumption (:>) that I am not entirely unintelligent, 
I do still find the instruction on the main map features page of the osm wiki 
very confusing - that is what started this thread for me. Perhaps you, or 
someone else long-established in the world of OSM, could consider editing the 
wiki to make it clearer?
 
Regards, mikh43
