Is there a reason why the waterway=riverbank has not gone through voting? With the multipolygon relation for islands it seems to work well. cheers, Chris - Original Message From: Michael Collinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: talk@openstreetmap.org Sent: Friday, 4 January, 2008 8:25:19 AM Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] redundant proposal? - man_made=fenced_compounds At 01:22 AM 1/4/2008, Robin Paulson wrote: in my quest to tidy the proposals page on the wiki, some proposals have come up which appear to be redundant is there an acknowledged way of removing them, without going through the whole comments/opinions/voting process? http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/Fenced_compounds is a good example thanks Ye, it would certainly be good to be more aggressive in cleaning up up the Proposals page, it is hard to casually browse for live proposals.

[OSM-talk] redundant proposal? - man_made=fenced_compounds
in my quest to tidy the proposals page on the wiki, some proposals have come up which appear to be redundant is there an acknowledged way of removing them, without going through the whole comments/opinions/voting process? http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/Fenced_compounds is a good example thanks ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
