For cases where it's something like picking a value from "yes/true/1" or key from that list, sure. They all mean the same thing, and for the most part it's easy to change. I'd be less inclined to have one person, or the Ministry of Tagging, to use argument-by-authority is there was actual contention about what the tag actually means, as in some other discussions. Those ones really need consensus, or you'll get groups of people (or whole countries) ignoring the authoritative decision, and actually changing existing use is much more complicated. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
