I remember having read the term > "conscription number" for the system you described. Hmm, I haven't known the word "conscription" before and my dictionary translates it as "call up for military service". This does not seem to me very intuitive... ;-) Or is there another meaning, which my dictionary does not know? What about words like 'secondarynumber', 'minornumber' or 'sidenumber'? Especially the last one seems fine to me and moreover it's short... > Another question is, which tag to use in cases where there is only one > housenumber.

Personally I think that this idea would lead to confusion at the moment we want machines to read these numbers. You would not be able to distinguish when 'alternatenumber' is missing in the map (but the house has it) and when 'housenumber' is missing on the house (so the map has correct information). I would rather see mapnik/osmarender to draw 'alternatenumber' in case 'housenumber' is not present (possibly with different style). Do you think this is a good idea? > Regards, Marc > Best regards, Radek Černoch -- Radomir Cernoch +44 750 708 8293 / +420 607 282 031 Email, Jabber: radomir.cern...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
