This is a really big thing for me, some suggest using a set of tags a lot and then documenting, but I've done that with school zones only to be told I did it all wrong and I should have done it some other way. This was not only highly frustrating but demoralising and as a result I've not been bothered tagging any more school zones because I don't see a point until there is a "One True Way" to tag school zones. So OSM has lost a collection of data from the real world as a result. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
