+1. I agree, though it might be better for some stuff to be put in a separate (more appropriate) db (openyellowpages or something like this, where you (or even the person running the restaurant/shop/company) can put their whole menu, special offers, opening hours, happy hours, complete contacting information and maybe even the possibility to reserve a table), cinema-programm, goods available, etc. > even if you have to make up tags along the way, provided > their meaning is explicit and self-explanatory.

Or landuse=forest? Without definition any tag will remain as ambivalent as language can be (and even more as most mappers are non-native English speakers). cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
