I've been tagging local disused pubs with disused=yes and hoping that the renderer will catch up with what was agreed in the wiki for some time now :) Unfortunately there's an increasing number of boarded-up pubs round here :( So I raised http://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/1085 http://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/1079 and someone else raises http://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/1268 so go figure. There's clearly a bit of disagreement about whether disused and abandoned stuff should be shown. IMO they should not, not on the Mapnik rendering at least. The prettiest, first-impression, public-facing view should only contain active services and amenities, ditto rail lines, roads, canals etc. because the average user will only care about what's relevant and useful right now. Tongue-in-cheek suggestion: new tag, visible=yes/no or relevant=yes/no. -- Andrew Chadwick _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
