OpenRailwayMap has never supported priority=*. It was Mentz who found
this tag at an old, abandoned proposal although some railway mappers had
told them that there is a better tagging (usage=* + service=*). There
are already validation rules for JOSM users which show warnings if a
track has priority=*.

Best regards

Michael

Dr. Olbricht,

Thank you for publishing your intent.  I am coping the US Talk list because
a number of us rail fans in the US are looking at European tag models for
the vast railway network that we are piecing together.
http://www.openrailwaymap.org/ looks like the only way to show cases all
the features of rail changes. Will there be an impact to the railway map
too?

Regards,
Greg

The talk-transit@ list is inactive, and not entirely relevant since 
railways are not just transit. Because you're only looking at items in 
the UK and Germany you're best off consulting with the local lists for 
those places.


In the case of the UK the changeset (singular) seems to be 
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/26097829 .


If the adder of that was to remove one of the tags that they and they 
only added to the ways in that changeset, I'm not even convinced that it 
would be a mechanical edit.  Letting people know via talk-gb would still 
be a good idea though - and of course via the German forum for the 
German edits.


On the more general subject of railway tagging, I'm confused (see the 
discussion on https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/38327884 ) - but a 
discussion about "a German interpretation of UK non-standard railway 
infrastructure" is probably one for talk-GB as well.


Cheers,

Andy

[OSM-talk] RfD notification: Purge tag "priority" from tracks

2016-04-08 Thread Roland Olbricht

Dear fellow mappers,

we, the company Mentz, would like to fulfill a wish of the German community and 
change our former tagging of railway tracks.

This constitutes a mechanical edit. Therefore, I would like to notify you that 
I have put a request for discussion on talk-transit@ .
If you would like to discuss, please do so there.

Best regards,

Roland
