i mentioned earlier to Roy that when a committee is going round in circles you 
wait until the time is right and then come up with another proposal which 
actually offers the way out of the problem, supports most others partially but 
no one fully and then railroad it through.
I suspect that the working party concept may get off the ground with all the 
available hot air from that list

Good idea, and like others it won't get past the current stalemate with the way 
things are decided upon.

[talk-au] "Amenities" tags

2009-08-16 Thread Liz
I've started putting in complete sets of POIs in some small areas.
So I've just marked up the "amenities" with whatever seemed appropriate at the 
time if there was no tag
i used workshop for an engineering workshop
masseur for the massage clinic (not the other sort)
dental_technician for the denture bloke
and undertaker for the undertakers

I'd like to draw your attention to this guys suggested organisation of amenity

some of the comments that appear are quite fun - like the person who didn't 
think a mortuary was an amenity
(mortuary didn't survive as it has two distinct uses in various englishes)
