"type" is far too vague - it doesn't namespace at all, so it doesn't make it definite if it's a type of boules, a type of pitch, etc. The english wiki says, and I concur, Key:type "should be avoided": http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:type Much better to standardise on the "chaining" approach i.e. "boules=*" (or "boules:type=*" would have been another possibility in a parallel universe). Luckily, the number of petanque objects is small enough that it's possible to harmonise, so long as the nations can agree :) Just my 2p Dan _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
