I can agree with setting this proposal as abandoned. However, we do need better tagging for childcare facilities and it is disappointing that the talk Monica Stephens gave back in 2012 has apparently fallen on deaf ears.
I just watched that talk and fully disagree. The talk was using anecdotes as evidence and quite rhetorical. The proposal cited as example was rejected because it was immature and self-contradictory and had a fuzzy scope, not because the male contributors to OSM would not be able to classify child care facilities, or not interested in. The true aspect in the talk was the cultural diversification in educational and childcare systems, which was insufficiently considered in the previous approaches. These facilities are like the highway tag, they need national interpretation how to use them . tom _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
