landuse=mixed_use would be a kind of "ḧollow" tag, as it doesn't tell you which uses are mixed. With the current OSM-tagging, you can already mix the tags so they still contain information. landuse=residential;retail landuse=commercial;residential etc. -- m.v.g., Cartinus _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
