Hi,
I have seen in proposals or discussions about them several different ideas
about how to tag if something is still functional/in use or not. However
there has been a proposal for a general tag just for this for a while now.
So I dusted of this older proposal (just lay-out changes, but no con

Hi,
I have created three proposals for the OSM community. I am working with a
group of students from the University of Maryland and we are trying to make
a map system of campus, that can be customized for safety and handicap
concerns. The proposals I am making are as follows:

It is a bug. The seams are a rendering artifact and should definitely not
be worked-around by adjusting the tagging.

For many countries the use of these 'official' aerodrome ground layouts
is _explicitly_ restricted to performance of real-life flights, no

The matter of renderer quirks and whether you should work around them
arose on another thread but didn't really go places. One principle
that was strongly backed was "fix the renderer, don't tamper with the
data". But before filing any bug reports I want to check the mood
among those of you hacking

As of 18:01, 11 March 2008, it appears that the "Path" proposal was on
its way to rejection.
It has now been heavily modified, taking the comments of the voters into

Yep it's either rough areas or where people would probably take forever to
understand me, that I fear being seen.
However there are the times (maybe as many) when I'd like to be asked.

I'll second that. When I'm mapping, I can narrow it down to a couple
categories if I'm not sure which tag(s) (or if there is one) is/are
appropriate. Having a single place to search where only tags are
returned is a great tool.

I don't want to shout you down - this is the talk list, so lets talk.
My experience from *mapping*, not managing the wiki, is why I like the map
features on one page.
I use Find on this Page in Firefox to search the page. I still have to look at
proposed features, where I use the same process.

Hi,
Just read from gdal-dev about this free and seemingly well organised data set.
Could it be worth importing the most part of the airports in the world? Because
of the new OGR driver it might be fairly easy technically.
