Erik,
I've been using the start and end dates as well. I would prefer we use
something like life_cycle [1] for structure status since this will better track
what structure is in what state. Today's ruins are yesterday's town hall.
Rendering is something we still need to work on. Suggest more tagging data is
better than less tagging data - it's easier to delete superfluous data later
rather than re-creating it.
dates and times are problematic in OSM right now; the date/time format for
access conditions is a mess. i suggest we should adapt something
standard like
ISO format or a subset thereof. historically, time zones are fairly
modern so we
need to think about that issue.
some of the military mapping i want to do will require hours and (rough)
minutes.
