No, just that your more likely to get an answer about the legal side of

 Hi everyone

 Shelter = yes/no I think is essential to leave in as a requirement as to
 whether a bus stop is completley surveyed or not. For two reasons:
 indication of a shelter is a representation of what's present on the  
 ground
 and it's a pretty siginificant presence ( after all we tag and map  
 smaller
 things like post boxes and park benches!); and it's also useful for bus
 passengers to know whether they're going to get wet or not when waiting  
 for
 a bus ( for when we can eventually actually render this on maps)


How about adding an option to set wheelchair=yes to mark the new higher  
kerbs that are suddenly appearing everywhere (at least round here anyway)

 I would prefer to call it something like barrierfree=yes as it is not
 only helpful for wheelchair users.


Maybe just raised_kerb=yes or kerb=raised as I'm not sure if its just me  
but barrierfree doesn't really suggest wheelchair/buggy/what ever  
accessible.

In fact it sounds more like tagging that there isn't a barrier=fence or  
something in between the bus and the bus stop.

 kerb=raised is a good idea (which could be combined with kerb=lowered  
 for pedestrian crossings) as the bus stop only becomes accessible (for  
 wheelchair users) if it is served by a low-floor bus.

I'll be switching to using kerb=raised now.  Although I assume if they've  
altered the kerb that they buses serving the route would be low-floor  
buses.

On second thoughts after hearing about a bus stop which got built on the  
wrong street - and maintained maybe not :)

 I feel absolutely terrible for not noticing this sooner, and am
 terribly sorry for the problems caused.

Is there any way to remove the items in this changeset that haven't been
updated since upload on mass?  I've tried to fix the odd item, but there
is a lot of duplicated data.

 I'm trying my hand at it now. Both numbers given above are the same, did
 you mean another changeset besides 1420511?

Re: [OSM-talk] Potted plants vs. garden beds

 I'm not sure the rows of planters with big spaces between really are a  
 barrier.
 They could be described as a hedge, which is just a row of plants so  
 barrier=hedge.


How about barrier=bollard as they seem to perform the same function, they  
just look a bit better than your standard bollard.

I entered my username and password in via preference's and tried again -
