I propose that we adopt a new key: maxspeed_mph
If we have maxspeed_mph, I would be far happier seeing.
maxspeed:mph
maxspeed:km/h
I don't like the idea of maxspeed and maxspeed_mph, we'll almost certainly
find things defaulting to maxspeed,

I believe back on the 10th of March Russ said in three seporate emails that
he would upload the data, monitor the changes (dealing with associated
conflicts) and report back here with his findings.
I am fairly certain in another email shortly after he said he's now done it.

Thoughts and suggestions much appreciated.

What is the reason for this disparity?
