I don't think there's much difference in nature, it's more a difference in the way of tagging - it's comparable to the difference between tagging a POI and using exactly the same tag on an area: Both can be used to tag the same situation. Still, the larger something is, the more chance the mapper will use the area possibility. The same for cycleway=track vs. highway=cycleway: The more tenuous the connection between cycleway and road, the more chance that the cycleway will get a separate way. I have stated where I put the boundary, but I think it's unavoidable that different mappers will put the boundary different, I even know there are some who never use cycleway=track, but always render separately. -- André Engels, andreeng...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
