Did you try to get hold of such a list? Was it useful? I'm an independent computer consultant. In the tax registry, I'm an "educational venture". Maybe your map would show my home address as a school building? I guess most restaurants are just "restaurants" in the business registry, so you wouldn't know which serve pizza or Chinese, or which are open for lunch or closed on Mondays. Most businesses would register the postal address where they receive mail from tax authorities, not the shop front door. -- Lars Aronsson ([email protected]) Aronsson Datateknik - http://aronsson.se _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
