Hi Christoph Thanks for this - We have Coventry data but can't get much enthusiasm from the Coventry mappers to complete this. We're still to get Dudley - who wants to approach them? Sandwell routes seem to appear at a different zoom level to the rest? Do we just have to wait for the rendering

Brian, Re Coventry, yes it would be nice to see some enthusiasm from there. Maybe we should prod a few that are active currently? Re Dudley, I’ll see if I can get the contact details of the appropriate person. Re Sandwell, I’m in contact. Cheers Andy From: Brian Prangle

Hi Graham Problem - I've entered a couple of microbreweries where your map selects the name of the pub rather than the name of the microbrewery located on the same site e.g http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/136989676 where I've tagged the pub with name= and the brewery with name_1= .

Looks good to me, nice work! Are you going to add distilleries and cider houses too? Thanks - yes will add those this week. I will probably do a bit of a code re-hash to make it just use one configuration file for the server side and client side to make it easy to change what it renders.
