I think it's time to switch to the tagging list !
The tagging scheme that seems preferred in this discussion is the following :
- simple named junctions : use junction=yes and name=*
- complex named junctions with several lanes crossing a different points :
two propositions :
- use a relation { type=junction, name=*, junction role,...}
referencing all the crossing points between the lanes
- use a place { tag=junction or crossroads, name=* } on a area
englobing the crossing points
All right ? What are your opinions on this ?
