Mhh, the tagging proposal workflow still involves tagging@ as a requirement. 
And many of the tagging@ members flamed against a proposed move over to 
Discourse . This change would had allowed me to participate in tagging 
discussions again :)

It is not just "Talk". It is a phenomenon of all English speaking OSM mailing 
lists and forums.

The principle of using only open source software is a very poor ideology. 
Ignore people embracing it as I do. Makes live much simpler to ignore people 
not being capable of seeing all sites. In this case open source and closed 
source. Closed source has its reasons to exist.

If they're copying from proprietary maps like from GMaps, then not because it is not allowed to copy from them.

The entire point is to move away from a dead technology (Flash Player) to a supported one (AIR).

On the percentage stat, it's worth bearing in mind that the P2 project is by a long chalk the smallest sum (€2500) of the three that OSMF is proposing here. As a point of comparison, iD was initially developed with a $575,000 grant from the Knight Foundation in 2012, so roughly $646,000 now. Very conservatively estimating the cost of employing 1-2 developers to code on iD since then, you get a development cost of roughly €0.004 per (2020) changeset for iD vs $0.0002 for P2, which is kind of fun.

(I'm actually pleasantly surprised that P2 still has so many changesets - 20 million last year, and I'm guessing high teens this year - given how difficult it is to get Flash Player running in most browsers these days. That suggests that P2's users are using it because they want to do so, not because they are magically unaware of the existence of other editors. I suspect if you could find another way of getting 20 million edits for €2500 then we would snap your hand off.)

Looking forward, and continuing the theme of ROI, the other benefit of the project is that it enables development work to continue on P2. The reason I have bid for funding for this, for the first time in 14 years of developing editors for OpenStreetMap, is that it will take a solid chunk of sustained work to do the AIR conversion and a bunch of other stuff I believe will make P2 more sustainable into the future, and

AIR is not maintained by Adobe, but by Harman, a Samsung subsidiary. AIR for Linux is still supported at version 2.6 but not updated (https://airsdk.harman.com/faq): Harman is considering future updates. P2 will still run on 2.6 - there are explicit workarounds in the code (e.g. in net/systemeD/potlatch2/collections/Imagery.as) to ensure backward compatibility.

Nonetheless, even if P2 didn't run on Linux, I'm not sure why this should be an issue for other users. No-one says Vespucci isn't sustainable because it doesn't run on iOS.

I'm not sure who the "we" is in this question, but assuming you're not volunteering yourself :), the difficult dependency with P2 is not ActionScript 3 but the Flash runtime, i.e. the Flash and Flex APIs. There are currently only two runtimes capable of running P2: Flash Player and AIR. Ruffle is showing promise (https://github.com/ruffle-rs/ruffle) and is under very active development, but does not yet support AS3 or the Flash Player features that P2 needs. I would anticipate that P2 will be able to run as WebAssembly when Ruffle reaches feature parity with AIR 2.6.

So far as I understood Adobe dropped Linux support for its AIR plattform. If that is right, then I am in doubt that supporting the development of Potlatch 2 is not that in a sustainable manner.CheersSören Reinecke Original Message Subject: [OSM-talk] Funding of three infrastructure projects : Nominatim, osm2pgsql, Potlatch 2From: Guillaume Rischard To: OSMF Talk CC: OpenStreetMap talk mailing list 
	
	
	

Hi all,
The OSMF Board wants to facilitate and support improving
infrastructure. During the Microgrants process, there were proposals
that didn’t make it, but would together be a good pilot for a “OSM
infrastructure” process, to learn how supporting osm infrastructure
projects works well. 

The OSMF Board wants to fund a limited number of projects proposed by
trusted long-term volunteers whose work we know and enjoy. We have
selected the osm2pgsql and Potlatch microgrant proposals, and have a
new proposal from Nominatim. 

In the long term, we want to re-activate the Engineering Working
Group (EWG) by making it a place for decision making, project
guidance and budget management for such projects. 

The Board would like your feedback on these three specific
infrastructure projects: 

Nominatim 

Nominatim is the geocoding software that powers openstreetmap.org
and many other apps and websites. Sarah wants to work on: 


	
	finishing the localization efforts (improve address computation for
	different countries, localized address output) 
	
	
	making the software more user-friendly (reduce the number of
	programming languages by at least two, move side-projects into
	separate repos, reorganise the code so that Nominatim can become an
	Ubuntu package, docs, docs, docs) 
	

The full proposal is at
https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Nominatim_project_2020-07


Potlatch 2 

Potlatch 2 used to be the default editor before iD took the relay.
While usage is declining, it’s still
used by 2500 (1.4%) users who did 10 million (1.2%) changes in 2020. 

Potlatch is built in Flash, which browsers will retire by the end of
the year. Richard wants to adapt Potlatch 2 to the AIR platform so
users who still rely on it can continue to use it. 

The full proposal is at
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Microgrants/Microgrants_2020/Proposal/Potlatch_2_for_desktop


osm2pgsql 

osm2pgsql loads OpenStreetMap data into databases suitable for
applications like rendering into maps, geocoding with Nominatim, or
general analysis. It is used on openstreetmap.org
and in many other places. 

While there has been constant paid and volunteer work on osm2pgsql,
large scale architecture changes to pay off historical technical debt
are needed to tackle long term challenges, and make future changes
easier. 

Jochen wants to work on: 


	
	Hosting documentation on osm2pgsql.org
	
	
	
	Rethinking the output of the program to make it more concise and
	useful 
	
	
	Tackling the refactoring and cleanup of the “middle” code. 
	
	
	Ongoing maintenance as needed 
	
	
	Other work from the road map as time permits 
	

The original budget and scope were limited by the microgrant
framework. The current project goes beyond that, and addresses open
issues and potential improvements further and better. 

The proposal is at
https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Osm2pgsql_project_2020-07Thank you and happy mappingGuillaume, for the OSMF board___

[Talk-africa] Release: Cartographie des itinéraires de bus (Mapping informal bus routes)

[Sören Reinecke via Talk-africa]

Hello Aftrica,

it is been a long time and I must admit that I "nearly forgot" about
this project but since we do a reorganisation in Trufi Association I
"remembered" you :)

I am happy to announce the release of 
https://mapping-bus-routes.readthedocs.io/fr/master/ and some of you
are keen to work on PT mapping projects and to be able to use this
resource. OSM Togo now works with us to enable easier access to public
transportation in their regions. That's why they were so fast in
translating :smiling:

I hope you will benefit from it. I always read the OSM Blog and would
be happy to hear what you do in terms of PT mapping. Take it as an
invite to do PT mapping projects and perhaps to work with us.

--
We - Trufi Association - are dedicated to easier access to public
transportation. We are a non-profit international NGO with our roots in
Bolivia & Germany. We are committed to help cities and regions to run
their own public transport apps. Now we want to help the communities in
Africa.
Communities from Africa helped to bring the French version (
https://mapping-bus-routes.readthedocs.io/fr/master/) of "Mapping
informal bus routes" alive in many different ways. I was really
surprised about the fast translation done by the community of Togo. OSM
Mali and OSM Ghana were very friendly, gave feedback and helped me to
spread the translation project. More people than necessary wanted to
help translating :) It was exciting as always.

Hi Sören, Jean-Marc, Enock 

Thank you Sören for the great job you are doing with Communities in
terms of Public Transport Organization.
My answer to your question "Does your community need a translation into
French? If 
yes, I would set up the translation infrastructure and invite the
onces 
wanting to do the translation work" is yes.
Yes, a translation into French will be very useful for most of the West
African OSM Communities and some of them including OSM Mali have been
already working on Public Transport Mapping Projects.

Thank you Jean-Marc, Enock for your comments and for looping in us in
this emails !

Hi,

nun ist es soweit. Unser YouTube Account 
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjCS5VzsMI2TreDsIxWoIEg ist heute mit
zwei Videos online gegangen. Für Menschen, die YouTube nicht mögen,
gibt es https://videos.openstreetmap.de (Das befindet sich zurzeit im

Designideen gefragt :))

Wir werden nun nach und nach das Angebot weiter ausbauen. Die
dazugehörige Wikiseite 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Germany/Videos_zu_OSM wird
ebenfalls aktualisiert. Zu Anfang werden wir noch etwas träge agieren,
weil wir noch keine Workflows haben. Aber wir arbeiten daran.

Wir sind in Moment zwei bis drei die das machen. Einer ist wieder
ausgestiegen. Insofern freuen wir uns auch über OSMler, die ebenfalls
zum Projekt "Videos zu OSM" beitragen wollen.

Längerfristig soll es auch das Ziel werden, Videos mit veraltetem
Inhalt rauszunehmen und neu zu machen. Hat den positiven Nebeneffekt,
dass man die Videos dabei qualitativ verbessern kann. 

Danke an FOSSGIS e.V. für die Betreuung des Accounts und für die

ich für die Community besser erreichbar werde. So kann man mich bei
Fragen etc. zum Projekt kontaktieren.

Re: [Talk-africa] [Trufi Association] Translation of bus route mapping documentation

[Sören Reinecke via Talk-africa]

Hi all,shall we start the translation project? It not, then I don't have to keep the infrastructure I set up for that or at least I can deactivate and disconnect https://mapping-bus-routes.readthedocs.io/fr/master/ from the living versions of the documentation to recover fast for later translation.Or was something in my previous e-mail (attached below) too awkward so I need to improve my own writing style?CheerioSören Reinecke alias Valor Naram Original Message Subject: Re: [Talk-africa] [Trufi Association] Translation of bus route mapping documentationFrom: Sören Reinecke To: Nathalie SIDIBE ,christoph.han...@trufi-association.orgCC: Enock Seth Nyamador ,talk...@openstreetmap.org,talk...@openstreetmap.org,talk-africa@openstreetmap.org,talk...@openstreetmap.org,franck Akouete ,Saliou Abdou Hey translators,I've now set up the infrastructure https://github.com/trufi-association/mapping-documentation-french which deploys to https://mapping-bus-routes.readthedocs.io/fr/master/ .

Hello Sören. talk-africa@openstreetmap.org is English language only but, 
in French-speaking West Africa, the Openstreetmap contributors use 
French almost exclusively in their Openstreetmap practice. French 
translation proves valuable in including them.

Hello there,

I am Sören Reinecke from Trufi Association. We help communities in developing 
countries to organize their public transport (pt) e.g. we work with the 
community from Accra, Ghana. Aside from providing the pt navigation app and the 
infrastructure behind it (e.g. OTP server etc.) we also show mappers how to add 
bus routes to OpenStreetMap ( 
https://mapping-bus-routes.readthedocs.io/en/master/ ).

My question is: Does your community need a translation into French? If yes, I 
would set up the translation infrastructure and invite the onces wanting to do 
the translation work.

Re: [Talk-de] Gesucht: Mitstreiter*innen für COVID19-Öffnungszeiten-Karte (Ça reste ouvert)

[Sören Reinecke via Talk-de]

Diese E-Mail wird absichtlich auch an Binary Butterfly GmbH (irgendwas
haben die mit zu tun), Lokalwirkt und an den Projektmanager von
Babykarte gesendet.


> mir gefällt das Projekt gut, auch wenn in der deutschen Community
(soweit ich es mitbekommen habe?) noch keine Einigkeit besteht, ob
solch ’temporären’ Einschränkungen in OSM abgebildet werden sollten.

Dazu habe ich paar Infos: Die deutsche Community ist sich dessen noch
nicht einig, weil die Rolle des Keys `opening_hours` noch nicht klar
ist. Denn die abweichenden Öffnungszeiten in diesem Key festzuhalten
sei nicht nachhaltig und würde nach Beendigung der Corona-Krise zu
Problemen führen: Geschäfte würden wieder ihre üblichen Öffnungszeiten
annehmen und viele Werte im `opening_hours` somit ungültig machen wenn
die veränderten Öffnungszeiten aufgrund von Corona in diesem
festgehalten würden. Einen Subkey namens "opening_hours:covid19" ( 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:opening_hours:covid19 ), in dem
man die veränderten Bedingungen festhält, würde alle Bedenken
beseitigen und in der Community Einigkeit auslösen. Nach der Corona-
Krise könne man mithilfe von einem Mechanical Edit den Key
"opening_hours:covid19` aus der Datenbank wieder entfernen. Solch ein
Mechanical Edit wäre im Vergleich auch deutlich weniger riskant. Aber
solche Aktionen sind zukunftsmusik und sollten mit Lokalwirt
abgesprochen werden.

Zu unserem Tagging: Die Community hat sich selber ein ultra flexibles
Taggingsystem geschaffen, welches manchmal und doch oft genug
Entwickler wie mich zum verzweifeln bringt. Unser Taggingsystem erlaubt
es uns auch temporäre Sachen wie `Key:opening_hours:covid19`
abzubilden. NICE FACT: Bei Baustellen machen wir das schon so ähnlich.
Wir nutzen Umleitungsrelationen, die aus ihrer Natürlichkeit heraus
auch temporär sind. Ich selber sehe auch bei unseren Datenverwendern
wie OSMand, Maps.Me, Mapy.cz kein Problem. Auch sie - wenn sie wollen -
können das temporäre Tagging-Schema "opening_hours:covid19"
unterstützen. Je flexibler unsere Stakeholder, desto flexibler können
wir auch arbeiten und andersherum.

Als Entwickler der Babykarte kann ich dazu auch nur sagen, dass
Babykarte - sofern es nach Michaels Ansicht sinnvoll wäre - eben diese
geänderten Öffnungszeiten unterstützen könnte. Ich würde dann einfach
ein extra Feld hinzufügen, so können die Nutzer einmal die normalen
Öffnungszeiten sehen und die speziellen für die aktuelle Zeit. So sind
Nutzer nicht verwirrt und können explizit davon ausgehen, dass die
veränderten Öffnungszeiten im Zuge der Corona-Krise berücksichtigt
worden sind. Sähen sie nur die Öffnungszeiten wie normal, dann würden
sie die Daten als falsch betrachten. Also ich sehe auch bei der
kurzfristigen Implementation des besagten Keys in Anwendungen keine
Probleme.

WE'RE QUITE FLEXIBLE AND WE HOPE OUR STAKEHOLDERS ARE TOO!

Wer also an einer Videoproduktion interesse hätte, meldet sich bitte
bei mir. Somit können wir dann eine Arbeitsgruppe bilden. Ich plane mit
denjenigen auch einen Call über Jitsi, Hangout etc. (Ich bin da sehr
flexibel), damit man sich zu Anfang besser organisieren bzw. besprechen
kann wie es nun weiter gehen soll.

Hey,
wenn ich mir Youtube angucke, dann finde ich sehr
vieleenglischsprachige Videos zu OpenStreetMap in selten guter
Qualität(eher schlecht oder mittelmäßig). Diese sind aber nicht
gebündeltsondern bunt durchgemischt (kein offizieller Account, vielmehr
kleine"Kräuter"). Es gibt z.B. keine mir bekannte Playlist zu "OSM
Basics".Youtube ist dabei eine Plattform, die von vielen Menschen
genutzt wirdum neue Dinge kennen zu lernen. Youtube kann also dazu
beitragen, dassOpenStreetMap bekannter wird und Eintrittsbarrieren
nicht mehr so großscheinen.
Was sagt ihr dazu? Wir brauchen nur ein Team von Content-Producern.

argue for himself/herself, if what she/he has done is survey- or
armchair mapping. That's why I think simplify should be kept in mind. I
also hope that editors will someday help mappers to create good
changeset comments and therefore providing a guide to mappers so they
can easily categorize their changesets and making it easier for others
to double check and to apply corrections where necessary and informing
the mapper of what has been done wrong and how to prevent that from
happening again.

I'm very sympathetic to knowing the on-ground-ness of a change.  But
Ithink it's shades of gray.  This list illustrates what I mean:
* armchair
a place I have never been to, and which is so far away that I am
notfamiliar with the customs.  An example would be me (US) editing in
Africa.
* country-armchair
as above, but I know the country norms.  Me editing in Glacier
NationalPark.
* local-armchair
as above, but I know the region norms.   If I edited some town in
MAthat I haven't visited (perhaps because I was going to visit), but
Igenerally know how things are.
* visited but mapping done by imagery
Here, I am editing a place where I've been at some point
reasonablyrecently and have some clue, but my edits are based on
imagery.However, my recollection is good enough to avoid most of the
armchairissues.   An example is me fixing up crosswalks and sidewalks
two townsaway, but not from field mapping notes.   I don't consider
thisarmchair, but it's iffy.
* editing soon after a visit
I got someplace, maybe make notes, maybe remember, and edit based
onsome combination of imagery, gpx tracks, notes and memory.   I
thinkthis is squarely not armchair.
* editing while there
Actually using an editor while being in the place being edited.


I would basically split this into three armchair and three not
armchair.



So basically I think source including imagery does not really
imply"armchairing", in that the use of imagery is not the point, but a
lackof familiarity with what's on the ground.  I almost always load and
lookat imagery when editing after being in the field.  I line up ways
fromimagery when that works, becuase I have come to believe from
experience(with specific imagery sources) that this is more accurate
than my gpstracks.
(I have been experimenting with raw GPS data and post-processed
PPPsolutions, and those I think are close to good imagery.)

Hello again,

very big sorry for the delay, was bussy :)

I updated the page 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Changeset/Governance to include
your points of corrections. I also generalized it to comply with
writing standards of the OpenStreetMap Wiki Community.

Sry to have created the page in the namespace of "Changeset". But I
made it clear that it is a stub and not official. My aim is inspiration
rather than dictation.

Cheers

no. Changesets made during armchair mapping need to include the hashtag
"#armchair" and the source the mapper used in the `source` changeset
tag.

> happened to the good old source tag
where source=survey would point to mappers on the ground

in my recent commit I changed the idea to include `source=survey` for
changesets made during surveys.

Spirit of Changeset Governance: Basically it introduces a way to

way for us and the performers to better control validation processes

I've been asking about the '#apple' hashtag, for quite a while,
  straight from Andrew Wiseman, but I don't seem to be able to make

they have their team, you can find their edits matching changeset

A local mapper who sees something may add it before any satellite imagery has it.

If you then 'fix' this back to the satellite imagery you will have committed an error,
and that error may dissuade our most important resource from ever making any further changes- the local mapper.

Be very careful!I second this last line !I am observing an influx of mixed-quality remote edits from Amazon Logistics in my area.

From a pedagogic point of view I would consider that suboptimal, no to
mention that it would be endless.

For anybody that is going to contribute more than once (and iDs tutorial
does a good job of guiding through that), we want them to learn the
basic concepts of OSM and enable them to extend that to new situations.

That is different from a guided contribution model, say for example with
https://osmybiz.osm.ch/ 
which is preferable for people that don't want to contribute to OSM in
general but just want to add and maintain a specific object.

Manual changes to the Wikipage without proper community discussion and general agreement is not good because the specification of "changing_table" is protected by the Proposal Process.CheersSören Reinecke alias Valor Naram Original Message Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] changing tables for adultsFrom: Rory McCann To: Holger Dieterich ,talk@openstreetmap.orgCC: On 22/01/2020 10:31, Holger Dieterich wrote: > I suggest to use this new tag to describe changing places which are > specifically made to be suitable for adults: > * > * > *changing_table:suitableforadults=yes/no*I think `changing_table:adult=yes/no` reads better, it's the same meaning, but less verbose & wordy.It's great to have this sort of data in OSM. ___talk mailing listtalk@openstreetmap.orghttps://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk___

[OSM-talk] iD as default editor

[Sören Reinecke via talk]

Hello,

so far I know currently Postlatch is the default editor on osm.org . Since it 
needs Flash to run and most users do not have Flash anymore, clicking on the 
"Edit" button leads to almost blank page. Without knowing that you need to 
change Postlatch to iD in settings, you're lost as newbie. This is not very 
beginner friendly

Are they any plans to make iD the default editor or is iD already the default 
editor?

Cheers

Re: [OSM-talk] [OSM-dev] tagtransform for OSM - An effort to make tagging and using OSM data easier; bridging different worlds together

[Sören Reinecke via talk]

Hello,

I think I need to provide an overview of tagtransform for you to
understand what I want to achieve and to get the idea of bridging. An
update of the repository with better explanation will follow. Some
things changed and some users inspired me so I forgot to update the
README.md accordingly.

Tagtransform specification: (Need ideas to add to the specification,
read here the specification and here you get to know how to contribute)
- The specification enables the convertion from one format to another
by inventing a language that acts as a connection point. This is useful
for offline usage of the rules in the format the app developer can
better work with.
- Bridge between languages
  - e.g. JOSM xml <--> tagtransform specification <--> iD json
  - Data Item database <--> tagtransform specification <--> JOSM xml
- You can contribute to tagtransform
  - by improving the specification
  - by developing scripts that use the specification
  - by developing converters that convert tagtransform specification to
other formats like JSOM xml

Role of validators:
- Validators can take the data from Data Items to create validation
rules
- and can also inspire the Data Item OSM Community by providing them
with validation suggestions.

Role of editors:
- Editors can take the data from Data Items to automatically transform
deprecated tags and to discard discardable tags.
- For offline usage they can fetch data from Data Items and can
transform them to tagtransform specification.
- Recommend a specified POI tagging through presets or automatically
transforming wrong used tags like deprecated ones to new ones.

OSM Data Item Community: (important because tagtransform will use data
they create)
- They have the necessary infrastructure to host key/tag data and they
have already a bunch of these inclusive validation rules and usage
rules.
- They're mappers and understand how keys/tags are used and can
transfer that to meta sphere used by data customers, editors and
validators.
- Go to the Data Item Wikipage to get what it is all about and how to
contribute to Data Items.

Bots/Scripts: (Please do not work on unless we make the specification
production-ready)
- Can be used to query Data Item database for preprocessing data for
later use like offline usage or data analysation at larger scale
- through converting received data to tagtransform specification.
- You can contribute to tagtransform by developing scripts that make
use of the Data Item database of OSM Wiki by fetching them and
converting them to tagtransform specification.

I hope this helps

Cheers

Subject: [OSM-dev] tagtransform for OSM - A effort make tagging and
using OSM data easier; bridging different worlds together
Date: Thu, 05 Dec 2019 15:50:04 +0100

Hey all,

I currently write a specification for tranforming tags in OpenStreetMap
to make life of data customers easier. Different tagging schemes have
emerged since the existence of OpenStreetMap, same are existing in
parallel and a newer one deprecated an old one. Data customers without
knowing the OSM community much get lost. This project aims to help
developers who want to take advantage of the OpenStreetMap great
database which is by the way a brilliant project. This project can also
help to make tagging in OSM more orthogonal and more hassle free.

I saw conflicting interests between OSM community, OSM developers like
the iD developers and data customers. A renderer might need data in
another way as the community contributes. The community might need
another tagging scheme than a renderer. I thought how we can resolve
this, how we can get all sites on "one table" and that is the idea I
had come up with:

A more readable version can be found here: 
https://github.com/ValorNaram/transformation-table-osmtags/blob/master/README.md
and the principles can be found at 
https://github.com/ValorNaram/transformation-table-osmtags/blob/master/principles.md



Example 1: They want to have the phone number of a POI. There are some
problems with this:

1. They need to know both contact:phone and phone to get them all.
2. They need to support them both.
3. They need to remove one in case both keys are mapped on one POI.
This really happens, see http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/OI2.

Example 2: They want to know how many POI's have changing tables
(general: facilities for changing a nappy of a baby). There are some
problems with this too:

1. They need to know both changing_table and the deprecated diaper
to get them all.
2. They need to support them both. Difficult because they're highly
different tagging schemes.
3. They need to remove one in case both keys are mapped on one POI.
This really happens, see http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/OI5.

Example 3: They want to develop a mapping tool and want to correct
wrong typed in tags. There are some problems with 

[OSM-talk] tagtransform for OSM - An effort make tagging and using OSM data easier; bridging different worlds together

Hey all,

I currently write a specification for tranforming tags in OpenStreetMap
to make life of all stakeholders easier. Different tagging schemes have
emerged since the existence of OpenStreetMap, same are existing in
parallel and a newer ones deprecated old ones. Data customers without
knowing the OSM community much get lost, mappers use deprecated tagging
schemes and newbies get overhelmed by the bunch of possibilities OSM
gives (they do not know exactly how to map). This project aims to help
developers and mappers who want to take advantage of/contribute to the
OpenStreetMap great database which is by the way a brilliant project.
This project can also help to make tagging in OSM more orthogonal and
more hassle free.

I saw conflicting interests between OSM community, OSM developers like
the iD developers and data customers. A renderer might need data in
another way as the community contributes. The community might need
another tagging scheme than a renderer. I thought how we can resolve
this, how we can get all sites on "one table" and that is the idea I
had come up with: A specification and scripts helping to preprocess
data for each group. But I hope to achieve in long term that the
community comes together with developers, approves the automatic
toggleable function "correcting tagging by means of the community" e.g.
A mapper is typing in `phone=+33 6156 785847887948950` but the
converted form `contact:phone=+33 6156 785847887948950` will appear in
database. This would make use of short-hands possible and makes life of
tagging easier.

purpose (e.g. mapping facilities for changing the nappy of a baby).
2. They need to know the right/approved/more logical scheme.
3. They need to know how to convert:

diaper=yes
diaper:female=yes

becomes after the transformation:

changing_table=yes
changing_table:location=female_toilet

Basically it bridges the OSM community and developers together, it
might even resolve the conflict between iD developers and the
community.


I want to hear your opinions on this and also feel not to shame to ask
questions. My answers will be part of the clarification of the project
"tagtransform for OSM".
