Hi,

I removed over specific text about the country. The description of 
services does not exclude anything (like give birth).


Cheers.

So, my description is too specific ? What if I just drop the following sentence 
? It is not really meaningful, anyway.
"In some countries, like France, a midwife is a profession on its own, not a 
specialized nurse like e.g. in the U.S.".



yes, remove anything not needed. Examples often are counterproductive, because 
people tend to generalize them, and in this case it doesn't really matter for 
osm mapping whether your country sees them as specialized nurses or as a 
profession on its own, how much they earn or how long you have to study etc. 
You will tag a midwife (s office? practice?) when they can be considered 
midwifes according to the situation in your country.




Also, about rendering : here in France, midwives in hospitals/clinics usually 
wear a pink suit. So, I guess the doctor symbol could be used if changed from 
red to pink. What do you think ?



-1, this is likely specific to France and will not be understood elsewhere


cheers,
Martin

David, I am very sorry to only comment after you have gone to the vote,
very rude of me !

But I have been away, quite remote and very poor internet access, big
backlog of unread mail.

David, my partner is a midwife but of the "specialist nurse" variety.
What concerns us is how this tag will be used in parts of the world that
have a different midwife model. Here in Australia, midwives generally
work from, typically, hospitals or clinics and offer a reduced range of
services.

I think some advice needs to be given in the proposal on how to use it
in places that don't fit your description. Either

* "don't use it" or

* "use it but map users need be aware that services may not be as
described."

I suspect the first is a better option.

David

I don't understand what you mean here. I have no experience with OSM.



it was a suggestion regarding your layout of the page, right now I have
difficulties seeing which actual tag is proposed, or in other words,
which "key" and which "value" should be used to indicate the feature you
describe. These should stand out a little bit more to make it clearer

I think your proposal should be more explicit about the actual tagging
you propose (key=value, possibly in bold text).


I don't understand what you mean here. I have no experience with OSM.


Also the definition
leaves a lot of uncertainty (is this a about an office or a practice, or
is this the same in this context? Is it for the place where
examinations/birth is happening or is it for an administrative place, or
both?) Is this only for standalone features, or also for midwifes
associated to a clinic or hospital?


I guess it depends a lot on the country ! For example, in France, the 
only definition is : a place where a woman can exercise and get prepared 
for childbirth, get cured for a range of gynaecological problems (from 
puberty to end of life), get prescription for contraceptives, be taken 
care of before and after childbirth. It is NOT a place to give birth. 
Midwives who run a place like this in France are not linked to a clinic 
nor hospital.



Why do you require "licensed" (think
of places where public administration works worse, maybe they don't have
official licenses for midwifes).


I am not an English speaker. I meant an independent worker like a 
doctor, a lawyer, etc. running his own business. But maybe this can be 
just removed, so as to be more generic.




I also don't like the limitation to nodes, these will always have a
spatial extension, so allowing to tag them on areas as well seems
reasonable.



I don't really see why, but again, I have no experience with OSM...


Cheers,
Martin
