Sorry forgot to cc: tagging list I'm working on a Master Tagging System spreadsheet, which will be available in the next few weeks. (depending on my time-schedual)
It's great to see this top-usage, and i can cross-reference it with Steve's chart http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/user:Stevage/tagsupport and the CanVec/TIGER/LINZ/Corine/Garmin and a few more map features to see it all. So i think i now have enough data to be able to make the system work :) *** hi, would i be able to copy some of those tag stats for the Univeral Tag ID Chart im working on? its stored in a google docs spreadsheet, so i just need a spreadhseet that lists the most common tags... and i'll add you in as an editior.
