Hi,
proposed feature: natural=rocks
this is related to waterways & waterbodies
these are mostly nodes & areas.
Good for water navigation.
Is there another tag already in use that would do the same thing?
Thanks,
Sam

I've been getting a lot of tiles with the 'more OSM coming soon' message on
Mapnik, both yesterday and today at various zoom levels. The tiles appear
quickly rather than after a long delay as occasionally happens. Is anyone else
seeing this? Does it need attention?
cheers, Chris

I'm not sure I understand your comment. What is avoidably subjective? The
highway= tags and the foot/bicycle/horse= tags are all based on what is
observable objectively on the ground - either physical or signage
(supplemented sometimes by local knowledge of legal status - also
objective).

Before we all get too depressed, I think I agree with both of you (Dave /
Mike) that any changes to tagging should be backwardly-compatible, as far as
practical (or at least minimise the "wrongness" if the old tagging is
unchanged).
But we also need a scheme that is simple, effective and shows wh
On the OSM front page the map now has what look like square gridlines, making
Greenland look made out of graph paper. Is this a permanent change?
The pattern of the grid is square throughout the map, which doesn't match the
Mercator projection, so what are they intended to show?

It's hard to see how an inedible map could be "deliciously open". :-)

Oops, slipped off including "talk". I've forwarded my last to the list; you
may like to do so also...
I thought a quick tagwatch of "footway/path/bridleway/cycleway" might be
pertinent.
Europe: footway 556k - cycleway 166k - path 66k - bridleway 11k
Germany: footway 268k - cycleway 57k - path 45k - bridleway 1k
Netherlands: footway 19k - cycleway 38k - path 1k - bridleway 0k

Hi all,
It looks like this tag also could be set to a vote, i think there is
agreement that it gets spelled this way, as the OSM standard is for

water from flowing
