actually track implies even within Germany different things (legally, due to the federal organisation), as in "Baden-Württemberg" it is generally forbidden to use them even without special signs, where in the rest of Germany you can use them if there is not a sign to forbid it (which in some parts is nearly always, in others it is generally tolerated but not recommended to use). cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
