I'm not sure if you're suggesting we use the proposed relation Street (that already has a "house" role) or the approved relation Route. Anyway, both of them seem a good choice to me. On the other hand, associatedStreet is in fact a special-purpose relation and may be replaced by one of those. > Kindly, > David Regards, Simone _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
