They're definitely not a QLD thing, but I think they are a very Australian thing. As well as sports clubs, you have the Surf Life Saving Clubs, RSLs and so on. Although a lot only have one bar and restaurant, there are a lot that are much bigger - if I recall correctly, the Bankstown RSL has something like 6 or 8 restaurants in it. > I'm talking about the buildings that are run by (or for), are named > after, and support a sports club or organisation, but actually don't > have any thing to do with sport at that point.

I asked this a while back (possibly on IRC not on the list) and no-one really knew. In some cases, particularly SLSCs, the original purpose would still be very useful to have marked, in that case because it tells you where the patrolled part of the beach will be near. For the really big ones, marking the building with the name, and putting various amenity=* inside it might be good. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
