how would you distinguish between default values and incomplete data/missing information? We could have a tag defaults_checked=area;surface;lanes;oneway;lit;width;... to show which defaults have been checked, and maybe have different default-schemes maintained by different people or for different topics. We could define default sets in the wiki, default_set_garry:version2=yes, with Versioning, so we can later amend the defaults_sets without bothering... But for simplicity when in doubt I'd set the tag explicitly. According to your estimations every "default" that is tagged explicitly is at least 0.000000000000000000001% better than not having it. ;-) cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
