highway=bus_stop & railway=tram_stop are well-established and do the basic job perfectly well
some people decided they wanted a different system the value to the renderers of processing the new system is unclear at best; so they aren't likely to just add the established tags and be done with it On Mon, Dec 9, 2013 at 1:20 PM, Jo <winfi...@gmail.com> wrote: > Eventually has already taken 2 years and might take another 5.
