If you're not comfortable with choosing a highway value, then just using highway=road is a great idea - i.e. let those who are comfortable sort it out later. Recently, I've taken this approach also when tracing pathways - I just use highway=path now (plus surface=*). I'm OVER the cycleway/footway thing for now... :) > I have this insane theory that if the renderers just outright refused to > color roads without speed limit tags, these tags would get added a lot > quicker. Once you have roads and speed limits, the question of "which roads > are the quickest way to go usually" can be determined by an algorithm. Yeah - but hey, if you want maxspeeds to be entered, just go and do it. > I think it is useful to point out the problems every once in a while, > though.
