It's also a DB/framework issue, I don't think relations should be
abused for this purpose, instead the DB needs to be extended

This is one reason to do these sorts of routes as relations instead of
trying to cram lots of information into the way, you then should avoid
overlapping shields if

+1, that's what I say.

At work we've released for beta testing a POI mapping app for both
BlackBerry and Android, with future plans for iPhone, Windows Mobile
and Symbian.
Already it's receiving favourable reviews from non-OSM mappers.

That only says how many lanes, it doesn't describe restrictions or

Hi
I have a bridge carrying a cycle lane, dual carriage way (with central
reservtion) & footpath. As far as I can see is they each need there own bridge
& the result gets a bit crowded.
Is there a way to simplify this?
If the bright was independent it could also mean that the ways wouldn't need

I think this is fine. shop=foo disused=yes doesn't work because often
the idenity of a shop is removed as the landlord gets ready to re-lease,
and it's just an empty room.

I just saw an item on OSM in (a rerun) of Quarks & Co on the German TV station
WDR. It was about mapping the inner city of Bonn for wheelchairs. Nice example
of micromapping, where mappers were even measuring the height of the curbs and
