I'm a little concerned that there's no way to indicate "signed". You said designated does not mean signed. Also, according to the wiki, ""Offical" is only for ways marked with a legal traffic sign." What is a "legal traffic sign"? Is a "legal traffic sign" just a "traffic sign"? Could the definition of "official" be simplified to "signed"?? If not, what would be the difference between bicycle=official and bicycle=signed? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
