Did you check yourself the archive before submitting this comment ? I did and the only mention I found (searching "traffic_sign") was inside another thread called "Rights of way (was: Vote: highway=path)" which is not exactly the subject here.

Nevertheless, if there are people who think > this is good and works for them - let them use it. Nice when people have ideas. The problem is that it is not publicly discussed or, at least, not on the main mailing list and the idea becomes "a core recommended feature" when it is moving to the Map Features (which is what is said on the top of the page). My main concerns about this tag is not the city_limit but - the country-code set into the value and not anymore on the key like the tag "name" - and the trend to use this tag to replace the restrictions set on the ways (see the discussions on Talk:Key:traffic sign and Talk:Proposed features/Traffic sign.) Also the wiki pages are not cleaned-up. We have now the main page saying "please submit your comments on Talk:Proposed features/Traffic sign. Either we keep this tag as a proposal and remove the official wiki page "Key:traffic sign" or we adopt the tag, remove the "Proposed features/Traffic sign" and discuss on "Talk:Key:traffic sign" but please, stop juggle with a tag being "approved" and "proposed" at the same time on the wiki !
