That seems like the right approach to me. The menufy announcement makes it clear that those restaurants don't (necessarily) accept bitcoin, they only accept menufy. If I got a meal there without using menufy, I'll have to pay "caveman-style" (wow, didn't know cavemen used used credit cards, high-tech banknotes, or any kind of currency). But seeing the average quality of bitcoin edits, I won't be holding my breath for that level of tagging nuances to reach the necessary audience. Sigh... Offtopic: I still haven't figured that one out. Why does bitcoin, out of any other likely interests, attract a combination of enthusiastic but clueless osm contributors in such high numbers ? What's special about Bitcoin ? We have plenty of niche enthusiasts in OSM, but they usually map quite well (at least not worse than the average contributor/newbie). Is it something inherent in the bitcoin-using population ? A random fluke ? An observation bias on my part ? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
