It seems that boundaries are in place - Ex. Oslo: > http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?q=oslo > http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=14776 The problem is that we only show administrative boundaries of level 8, which for most countries are municipalities. But it looks like in Norway, this isn't the case, according to : http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dadministrative#admin_level Municipalities have been integrated as admin_level 7. This is a know problem: every country is different with regard to administrative boundary, and we haven't yet found the proper solution to handle that. Your feedback and ideas on the matter are very welcome.
